It has a definition for what a conforming SVG DOM subtree is. I still think it would be more logical for the outer spec (HTML, in this case) to specifically invoke the right conformance definition in SVG. But after discussing it in the SVG WG meeting last week we feel that validator implementors are likely to do the right thing anyway (i.e., check SVG subtrees for conformance) if they understand HTML5 and SVG, so I’m not going to press the point.
