Re: [svgwg] Add <use> to the graphics elements category

Not an accident, part of the shadow DOM re-write. A `<use>` element is
 now treated more like a container than a graphics element.  
Specifically, it does not render any content to screen directly, the 
visible content is rendered by the individual elements in the shadow 
DOM.

(Note, `<use>` still inherits from SVGGraphicsElement interface, but 
so do other graphical container elements like `<svg>` and `<g>`, which
 aren't included in the "graphics element" definition.)

Was there a specific place where this change has thrown off the 
content model of another element? I thought I'd checked & it was 
always covered by another category, but I may have overlooked 
something.
