Same resource downloaded twice

If I have a SVG stack (reference different parts of the same file), the SVG gets downloaded on every usage:

<object data="http://dahlström.net/tmp/sharp-icons/svg-icon-target.svg#plus"></object>
<object data="http://dahlström.net/tmp/sharp-icons/svg-icon-target.svg#chart"></object>

The both links above reference the same SVG file. Web inspector says that the file is downloaded twice. The idea of SVG stacks is to avoid that.
