Blaine, Thanks for the report. The SVG working group noticed this discrepancy. It was an error for the 'offset' attribute to be a <length> since cm, in, em, etc. don't make sense for this attribute. We decided to redefine the 'offset' attribute to be a <number> or a percentage, and in the DOM is stays as an SVGAnimatedNumber. (Therefore, you won't know from the SVG DOM whether the original value was ".5" or "50%" since both values will map to ".5" in the SVG DOM.) The next public draft will contain this fix.
