We agreed upon the possibility for user agents to support SMIL  
animations for SVG background images, but basically nothing else. We  
will clarify the wording of 3.2.2 to read like this:

"Agents may support declarative animated background images. A  
Scalable Child Element, as background image, will not provide support  
for scripting and interaction, such as zooming, panning, linking and  
user interaction events."

I hope you are satisfied with this change.

On behalf of the CDF Working Group, thanks.
