Re: [web-annotation] value or text on the definition of an SVG selector

It's consistent with the embedded content pattern, rather than the 
values in selectors pattern.  The use of text here is because we used 
to use Content in RDF to embed the SVG resource's representation. The 
same with the CSS Style.  I think this is correct, rather than value 
... we're embedding the content of the representation into the graph, 
rather than providing a stand alone value that is not a 
representation.

If there isn't an id, then it's just a blank node.  So long as the 
representation _is_ available from the URI in id, I don't see a 
problem. 

That said I do see the point about type-jacking. We solved that 
already for Semantic Tags where the resources were very likely not to 
be ours.  On the other hand, here it seems that finding an SVG 
document in the wild that happened to express the right area for the 
selection is so improbable as to not be worth worrying about?
