That's helpful, thank you, Leonard. I agree text wrap/flow is an issue, but we've gotta go with something in the near term. Some experimentation will tell us if text wrap/flow is a critical feature. I expect that we're not going to tie the solution to SVG 1.1 vs 2.0 -- we'll stay vague there so that people can upgrade when the time comes. We'll just need to put some warning text in the spec about overflow/text wrap in the meantime. -- manu -- Manu Sporny - https://www.linkedin.com/in/manusporny/ Founder/CEO - Digital Bazaar, Inc.
