Couldn't it be useful to make the prefetch element similar to the discard element in the next SVG version by adding a begin (and maybe an end attribute) and to use it to store the prefetched content to put everything into the SVG document needed to realise the 'streaming' only using declarative methods within the viewer? If prefetch is used for fragments referenced with use or for complete SVG documents with the element animation or audio or video elements for those format types, the author could simply indicate, when to fetch fragments or documents with the prefetch and when to discard them with the discard element. Additionally if the prefetched content of a prefetch element could be referenced with a fragment identifier on the prefetch element instead of referencing the URI of the original resource directly again, either discard can be used to remove the prefetched 'content' or an end attribute on the prefetch element can be used to discard the stored information within the same element.
