Resolving Relative URIs and Link Targets in a Compound Document

When dealing with svg:a, a question arose:  If we have a document:

<html ...>
  <head><base target="_top" .../></head><body>
  <svg ...><a xlink:href="foo.svg">click</a></svg>
</body></html>

Should clicking the svg:a link obey the html:base target attribute?

More context here: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=375696#c9

In other words, is there any CDF documentation that describes
resolving link targets and relative URIs in a HTML-SVG compound
document?

Thanks,
Jeff
