Dear Bjoern Hoehrmann, this is an answer to your comment found at: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-svg/2005Jul/0046.html The SVGGlobal::document field is of type Document so as to be compatible with the expected Global::document field since in some languages it is not necessarily possible to subclass a class and change the type of one of its fields. It is expected that casting will be used where necessary. The current specification assumes that forthcoming definitions of the Global interface will not inherit or otherwise implement the AbstractView interface (though they may provide other means of accessing it) so as not to create unnecessary conflicts. Thank you kindly for your thorough review, please let us know if this does not address your concerns. -- Robin Berjon for the Scalable Vector Graphics Working Group
