Well, my issue wasn't about what XML processors are required to do, it
was about what "Conforming SVG Viewers" are required to do and what is
a conforming SVG Tiny 1.2 document; you didn't address those points here
and the latest draft still makes incorrect reference in some parts to
these specification, e.g. it requires that documents are ns 1.1 w-f'd
which XML 1.0 documents cannot possibly be.
