dstorey has just labeled an issue for https://github.com/w3c/svgwg as "HTML Consistency":

== SVGAElement all attributes except href should be as HTML i.e. not SVGAnimatedString ==
download, rel, relList, hreflang and type are all modelled as SVGAnimatedString attributes. There seems no reason to do this as they aren't much use as things to be SMIL animated (in fact download is stated to be non-animatable in the spec).

  Possible solution

    have these the same as the HTML specification i.e. 

           [SetterThrows]
           attribute DOMString download;
           [SetterThrows]
           attribute DOMString rel;
           [PutForwards=value]
           readonly attribute DOMTokenList relList;
           [SetterThrows]
           attribute DOMString hreflang;
           [SetterThrows]
           attribute DOMString type;
