RE: SVG12: display:none elements should receive events

Hi Boris,
Speaking unofficially (i.e., not representating the WG), I would suggest
that it doesn't matter whether the mouse event is originated by the UA
responding to an actual mouse click or created via DOM APIs -- the
effect would be the same (i.e., an object with display=none does not
receive the event).

What about MouseEvents dispatched via the relevant DOM API?
