Hi everyone,
Sorry for the potentially mailing list off-scope reply and/or
attachment "spam", but this use case/test case seems to have triggered
potential issues or unspecified behavior...

More weird/incoherent behavior among implementations:
* Opera 9.64 and 10.0b3, Windows -- rendering issues in
"foreignObject" (black areas shown depending on window size);
* Internet Explorer 8+ASV 6.0dr1, Windows -- HTML styling (text
colors) and tag nesting (such as "code") doesn't work; also, an
apparent issue in child SVG documents;
* Safari 4.0.3, Windows -- child SVG documents not resized according
to parent window;
* Firefox 3.0.13, Windows -- seems to behave properly: the gray
rectangle never disappears, as in Linux (!).
Note that I haven't investigated properly in order to understand if
this set of incoherent behavior could be due to underspecified
behavior (within the SVG specification) or simply to implementation
issues, but it seemed like useful to share. :-)
Regards,
Helder
