animateTransform type="matrix"

animateTransform type="matrix"

the current Opera nightlies animate the attachment, though this is  
stated to be a regression.

What is the reason the WG chose not to support the matrix value?

it's not immediately clear to me how else this behaviour might be  
implemented...
