you can also embed images and fonts in svg, probably not as reliable as pdf for pixel-perfect reproductions everywhere though

Is there any way to embed raster graphics into an svg? If so, maybe svg could be used as a text-capable container for raster images.

Yep, they can, at least JPEG and PNG.

(and if you're not precise enough with your questions, some designers will simply send you a PNG-base64-blob-inside-SVG if you ask them "can we have a SVG version of that icon")

Sure, data urls in image tag. (Not sure how practical that is for file size)
