Chris,

Can you clarify what you mean, exactly?

My understanding is that the DOM should be no different than it is in SVG-in-XHTML.  That is:

<html ...><body>
   <svg id='svg1'...>... </svg>
</body></html>

DOM node 'svg1' has a parent node of the HTML:body node, regardless of the serialization.  The namespace of the SVG nodes in the DOM are in the SVG namespace, etc.

Regards,
Jeff

Without taking a strong stand one way or another on the XML-parser-in-HTML question, I would like to raise the issue I brought up in last week's telecon: how the DOM works across these "embeddings" is a critical question for any of these proposals, and detail on this issue is absent from the SVG WG proposal.
