Re: [fxtf-drafts] [css-masking] Support <g> element in clipping paths (#17)

The SVG Working Group just discussed `Support <g> element in clipping paths`, and agreed to the following:

* `RESOLVED: Expand the clipPath content model in CSS Masking Level 2; no change for Level 1. Exact details to be determined.`

<details><summary>The full IRC log of that discussion</summary>
&lt;AmeliaBR> Topic: Support &lt;g> element in clipping paths<br>
&lt;AmeliaBR> github: https://github.com/w3c/fxtf-drafts/issues/17<br>
&lt;AmeliaBR> Dirk: As background, clipPath currently only allows shapes, text, or use elements that directly reference shape or text.<br>
&lt;AmeliaBR> ... Proposal is to allow the &lt;g> element and possibly other elements.<br>
&lt;AmeliaBR> ... Given that CSS Masking is in CR &amp; there are no implementations, I want to resolve that we're not changing this for Level 1. But we could do it in Level 2.<br>
&lt;AmeliaBR> Chris: That makes sense.<br>
&lt;AmeliaBR> Dirk: Any objections to moving to Level 2?<br>
&lt;AmeliaBR> Amelia: No, it's new functionality, should go in the next spec.<br>
&lt;AmeliaBR> Dirk: OK, I have no problem with the idea for Level 2. But we need to figure out the details.<br>
&lt;AmeliaBR> Chris: I think those details may be why it wasn't allowed in the first place.<br>
&lt;AmeliaBR> Dirk: Any other comments?<br>
&lt;AmeliaBR> Amelia: Worth mentioning that is much-requested feature from authors. Current restrictions can make re-using content difficult.<br>
&lt;AmeliaBR> RESOLVED: Expand the clipPath content model in CSS Masking Level 2; no change for Level 1. Exact details to be determined.<br>
