Hopefully a simple question:

In the XHTML compound document example below, the second SVG fragment
refers to an entity in the first SVG doc fragment.  From an SVG
perspective is this legal?  What about from a WICD perspective?

Works in Firefox2, doesn't work in Opera9.  I'd like to raise a bug
against one of them today...

      <rect fill="url(#corner)" ... />

    <p>Blah</p>
