I guess I don't follow you. The 'image' element always requires a
w/h specification - it doesn't matter if the referenced content is
raster or SVG. What do you want to happen? one pixel->one user space
unit? I know that some formats may provide 'real world' unit mappings
(which could be sensibly treated as CSS units) but what about images
that don't include this information?
I guess I don't have a problem with requiring authors to say how
large they want the referenced content to appear in the document. Why
is this an issue for you? In most cases I can think of where this
might be an issue scripting would be a perfect solution.
