Then I have to disagree with how the Working Group handled the original
issue, even if the DOMImplementation interface was meant to be extended
by implementers, which it is not, this is not explained anywhere in the
draft, and there is no need for SVG Tiny 1.2 to interoperably implement
it, it's just bloat and should be removed from the draft.
