boggydigital has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/svgwg:

== Clean up definitions around transforms on root SVG element ==
Splitting SVG part of https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/894


What part of the SVG spec needs to be cleared up?

   - Somewhere it should state that the SVG root element is a CSS layout
   box for the purposes of transformations.  Probably in the same place where
   we state that backgrounds, borders, and other properties apply on the root
   element.

   - In the SVG view spec (linking chapter), it should state that an
   svgView transformation applies in the same way as a transformation on the
   root element.

   - In the SVG view spec, it should clarify whether the transformation
      - is in addition to the transformation defined in the SVG file (e.g.,
      take whatever would normally be drawn, and transform it)
      - OR, a replacement for it, as if it was an !important style override
      (all the other svgView parameters override values specified in
the SVG file)
