Er, sorry.  This was much more confused than I thought when I wrote it. 
  Let me try again.

If you have geometry being used as clip, you can get geometry 
information from it, but not color information.

If you have something being painted on top of other stuff, then 
combining filters and pointer-events seems like it can let you extract 
both geometry and color information.
