That's not what I want:
http://parsetree.validator.nu/?parser=html5&content=%3Ctable%3E%3Ctd%3E%3Csvg%3E%3CforeignObject%3E%3Ctd%3E%0D%0A

What I'm suggesting is making "have element in scope" sensitive to
foreignObject in the SVG namespace. I am not suggesting changes to the "have
element in table scope" variant.

Specifically, I am suggesting that the list in step 4 under 'have an element in
scope' be amended with the item "foreignObject in the SVG namespace".

(Aside: It would be an editorial improvement to write the "have element in
scope" and "have element in table scope" algorithms separately.)
