Thanks Robin.

I could, probably should, and just decided that I will, add it to my server
side SVG generator code.  It will slip in there nicely.

Maybe I'll take a look at jQuery.

In the meantime, it still seems, to myself at least; like a potentially
powerful construct.  It's really a CSS feature request.  It would be useful
in HTML as well.
