I've often run into the situation where I had 2 (or more) different organizational considerations, but was forced to use just one, as imposed by the document structure. A simple example is collecting all the labels in one group for displaying above the corresponding shapes, when in fact they should be organized each with their related shape. > I guess you're talking about declarative animation which I'll be > honest I haven't really thought about... Yes, animation does add scenarios, but the uses are not exclusive to animation. > But it still seems like we should 'fix' the UA behavior on > insertBefore(elementAlreadyInDOM, ...) Yes, the behavior in the DOM specs should be clarified. Regards- -Doug Schepers W3C Team Contact, SVG and WebApps WGs
