Re: [svgwg] [svg-native] Should declarations be required to be before all their uses? (#669)

The `<use>` element in SVG is defined that it _behaves_ as if the `<use>` element gets replaced with a group and the referenced element gets copied into this group. That has an influence on inherited properties (so even w/o `inherit` keyword) and requires saving a partial DOM, yes.
