Excellent. I wonder how <tspan /> got hosed in SVG 1.1 SE, but that's water under the bridge. Boeing has a HUGE usecase for tspan having getBBox(). Thomas -- Thomas Smailus, Ph.D. P.E.

Yes, effectively. > SVGTSpanElement interface should inherit from SVGTransformable in > that case, correct? The SVGTransformable interface was dropped in SVG 2 as part of moving to Web IDL (which doesn't allow multiple inheritance). Its functionality is now all on SVGGraphicsElement, which SVGTSpanElement inherits from through SVGTextContentElement.
