Re: [svgwg] Check whether behaviour of new CSS3 units needs clarification in SVG context

We have discussed these units, and agreed that they are resolved 
relative to the entire document, not the SVG fragment (and then scaled
 proportional to the scaling of `px`, same as any other unit).  So the
 normative definitions in CSS Values & Units stand (and the Chrome 
implementation is correct).

However, it might be worth adding a short explanatory note [to the 
Units section](https://svgwg.org/svg2-draft/coords.html#Units) 
clarifying that point, and especially emphasizing that the CSS 
definition of "viewport" (for the entire document) is not affected by 
SVG viewports.
