Allow me to mention that this has been supported in Firefox for a while now. The spec extension is straightforward. 'filter' induces a stacking context on the element, much like 'opacity'. The only significant issue is deciding what the SVG "bounding box" means for HTML content, and that's already come up elsewhere. We also support 'mask' and 'clip-path' applying to HTML in the same way. They should probably be on your list. Also, via our 'element()' CSS extension we support SVG paint servers applied to HTML elements. The use-cases for this are marginal --- SVG images and CSS features cover most of the use-cases already --- but it was relatively easy to implement.
