I can't help but to agree. To be honest, I don't see why there's some mysterious split between geometric and styling attributes. Why can you not inherit geometric attributes? Like: <g width='30' height='40'> <rect x='50' y='20' /> <rect x='90' y='60' /> </g> I'm sure there's a good reason, but I can't think of why. Sure, width doesn't apply to 'circle' elements, but it could simply not apply there. The cascading model is already in place, it seems simpler to implement something like this than to limit inheritance only to styling attributes.
