nikolaszimmermann has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/svgwg: == SVG2 spec: clarification in "Placement of Embedded Content" == @fred-wang brought up this topic a while ago, and I'd like to clarify this in the SVG WG: The text in the [SVG2 spec](https://svgwg.org/svg2-draft/embedded.html#Placement) "Placement of Embedded Content" section is unclear to me: ``` The ‘foreignObject’, or other element that is positioned using SVG layout attributes, is implicitly absolutely-positioned for the purposes of CSS layout. ``` What are "**SVG layout attributes**"? This is not precisely defined and unclear to me (x/y ?) Which other elements are positioned using SVG layout attributes? AFAIK only the outermost <svg> element in a SVG document fragment, and <fO> adhere to the CSS box model object positioning properties. If I'm not overlooking something obvious, this should be reworded, to explicitly talk about the outermost <svg> element, instead of referring to "other element that is positioned using SVG layout attributes".
