Re: [svgwg] SVG MIME Type (image/svg+xml) is misleading to developers

Implying things not stated by pulling content out of context doesn't 
help either.  Nor does it change the reality experienced on the ground
 in the corporate world, where we would be passing notes on paper for 
maximum intellectual property security if they had their way.

- SVG with JavaScript : this is SVG
- SVG without JavaScript: this is crippled SVG and makes it useless 
for smart technical diagrams and documentation.  

If SVG is just to be a web graphic arts format and has no desire to 
become a full vector graphics file format, by all means, fragment 
away.  We can always go WebCGM.

Seems like XSS is a problem with XSS and not SVG with JavaScript.  
Throwing out the baby with the bathwater is the wrong approach.
