The content shouldn't reflow, either, as the glyph is only scaled. The size of the CSS box containing the HTML would remain constant (it'd be the same number of px units). > Also, my fear is that people will abuse it and just make HTML characters. I'm inclined to say "so what"; if we decide that HTML in <foreignObject> is OK, then it doesn't really matter if people decide to use primarily HTML content in there, rather than just a little bit. (Remember though that we will be requiring the document to be parsed as XML and for the root element to be <svg>.)
