re Mono - I don't think it would work - Mono is aiming at framework 2.0
compatibility and ReaderWmf is framework 3.5

maybe if Wine gets mature enough and it allows for framework 3.5 to be
installed - then who knows ..

yes, you're absolutely correct - it's definitely not a Mulberry issue  -
paste2xaml is rendering Mulberry wmf's correctly for a start

the issue is with Inkscape xaml import filter and yes, File > Import
(Microsoft XAML) is the correct path
