What is the use case? Especially considering that this is also intended for
low-end devices... Oh well.

Works for me.

The problem I had with this is that it does no longer allow XML 1.0 as 
XMLNS 1.1
is XML 1.1 specific.

Which would imply that SVG could only work in XML 1.1 despite that you might
think it works in XML 1.0 because of the previous statement.

Fine with me.
