Btw, the reason why it only "somewhat" tests it is because you can
pass it in two ways - by doing things correctly, or by taking the
40%/60% as the size of the image, and then ignoring the percentages
when sizing the <svg> element, so that the <rect> ends up filling the
viewport.

The latter is a pretty inconsistent position to be in, but I've seen
stranger things, so it's possible that, if IE is passing this test,
it's doing so with the latter behavior.  I hope it does the former,
though.
