           Summary: Clarify that custom SVG elements must extend an

The custom element spec was confusing to me around extending an existing SVG
element. (I filed crbug.com/330980 by mistake as a result)

On the input section of document.register:
"EXTENDS, the local name of an HTML or SVG element that is being extended,
optional"

I read this as "extends" being optional, when it is actually not for SVG
elements. Could this be clarified to describe that extends is not optional for
SVG elements?
