    Well, no matter what you need to say what the encoding is.
Since AFAIK a string in JavaScript uses at least a short, should we
send those shorts as is?  Then what Byte order?  Network Byte order
(MSB)? or Intel (LSB)?

    I suspect you intend this to either send just the low 8bits of
a UTF16 encoded String (good for binary data), or send a UTF8 encoded
string (good for text).  However, you _must_ specify this.

    I would consider this a full blown issue for SVG 1.2!
