I found
http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-transforms/#svg-gradient-transform-pattern-transform
slightly confusing, as normally presentation attributes can be specified on any
svg element (see
https://svgwg.org/svg2-draft/intro.html#TermPresentationAttribute). It seems
the desire here is to break that convention, and regardless of the intention
the behavior needs to be specified - to explicitly call out the difference(s)
to other presentation attributes AND/OR to specify the order in which
transform, patternTransform and gradientTransform are mapped if they're all
specified on the same element.

It's possible that the SVG2 spec will need to be updated as well, see
https://svgwg.org/svg2-draft/styling.html#UsingPresentationAttributes, since
with the section in the Transforms spec a given presentation attribute and the
corresponding property may no longer share the same name.
