vectors use the pen tool to build shapesraster doesnt :D photoshop vectors arent true vectors but then as soon as you save a picture into a jpg it becomes a raster and so loosing its vectorness anyway! :D

You can save the paths in illustrator format(and then import them into Blender and make them into polygons, if so inclined.) Seems like they're real vectors to me. They're awkward vectors, I admit.

Dunno if it works.I tried it out with ps (postscript) format from inkscape once.* That produced curves in blender on the ground plane where the curves in the image were. Curves on their own aren't all that much use but with a bit of work (like extruding them or something**) they can be made into visible shapes.
