The notion that having both id and xml:id on a single element was not allowed was an editorial oversight as we had already resolved that it was. Concerning the behaviour of having both attributes with different values, notably concerning the way they impact the id field on SVGElement the behaviour has now been specified with the required precision, with additional details regarding other DOM interactions. Setting the id field updates both attributes so that they can be kept in sync. Thank you for your comments, -- Robin Berjon Research Scientist Expway, http://expway.com/
