Will this include a content-editable attribute, so that one will finally have a textArea-like object as included in SVG1.2 (2005)? I recall that Opera had actually implemented that at one time. Dunno, but I don't see why it would be troublesome. If we continue the "SVG is just a part of HTML" efforts, this'll come naturally anyway, since contenteditable is a global attribute. > There was also FlowRoot and allied concepts from 2004. After all this time, it really would be nice to have. Is CSS finally considering breaking out of the rectilinear box model? Those SVG1.2 concepts are dead permanently. However, CSS is introducing functionality for non-rectangular boxes in the Shapes spec <http://dev.w3.org/csswg/css-shapes/> (level 1 currently only does shape-outside - look at level 2 for the shape-inside property). ~TJ
