In <http://www.w3.org/TR/2005/WD-SVGMobile12-20051207/svgudom.html#Attribute_Normalization> it is defined what viewers may return for attribute values. The color normalization part does not define in enough detail what exactly may be returned for sRGB values as described in <http://www.w3.org/TR/2005/WD-SVGMobile12-20051207/painting.html#colorSyntax>. What is the normalized value of "rgb(100, 30,32,123)"? The section also doesn't address the problem. It is still unclear what you get back when you retrieve such a value. When using getAttributeNS that is what you can expect, but when using traits it should be more clear. I suggest that the SVG WG defines color normalization in a way similar to <http://whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/#fillstyle> (dropping the rgba() bit that doesn't apply to SVG). In addition, I suggest that the SVG WG contacts the CSS WG about this to discuss normalization of these property/attribute values together so a common syntax can be agreed upon and used. -- Anne van Kesteren <http://annevankesteren.nl/>
