I don't know how it would interact with R/gunplot/etc... But I have
hacked my local copy of org-mode to use pdflatex+preview+pdf2svg instead
of latex and dvipng for turning latex blocks into images. I haven't got
around to submitting it, since there should really be some refactoring
of the image handling code to deal with it.
