The reference from CSS to a marker seems to be problematic, there should
be an explicit statement in the SVG and/or CSS standards ( see my error
message https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=309612 )
After a change in Mozilla SVG a local reference like
marker-end: url(#dartZ); marker-start: url(#CtrlPoint);
is not evaluated to point to the SVG/XML-file, when it is given in an
external style sheet, but to nowhere in the CSS-file
The developer is saying, that this is conforming to CSS standards, and
checking the standards I've seen no strict argument against.
But this will be against the necessity to write CSS files usable for
more than one source, or bind marker definitions to inline styling.
I think, there should be a specific hint in the SVG specifications to
this problem of "back linking" from a CSS-file to the calling
SVG/XML-file set up by the marker statement.
(E.g. like different URI calculation for CSS links and SVG links in CSS
files ("URI name spacing") )
