Making that clear would presumably also be a change to SVG. We discussed in the SVG telcon today broadening SVG's id="" to allow values other than XML Names, to align with HTML. That would mean we would need to special case media fragment syntax and SVG view specifications not to be interpreted as IDs, but I think that would be fine. I don't think media fragments would "supersede" SVG, since we still need #svgView(...) to work. So the SVG spec will need to be updated to ensure we choose between interpreting the fragment as an SVG view specification, a media fragment, or an ID. (Regardless of whether we need to update the media type registration.)
