Yes but same is true of svg and most of html. There was talk about having some wording in the test suite such that some tests were only relevant to visual rendering agents. Something is wrong with the test regime if it is possible for an application to pass the test suite 100% that just parses a document and does not process the parsed tree at all. Microsoft submitted (and had approved) /html/tests/submission/Microsoft/foreigncontent/foreign_content_001.html which is a manual test with instructions > Test passes if a green rectangle is visible on the page below this > line. I have no problem with such tests being moved or marked with metadata to say that they are applicable to rendering agents only, but it seems reasonable to test if an SVG rect element produces a rectangle and it similarly seems reasonable to test that a MathML mfrac produces one number above another with a line between. I am just asking for clarification of whether such metadata is in fact needed before I generate any more tests for the MathML part of the platform. David
