Serialising a DOM tree by calling getAttribute on its elements should
most definitely not give you the animated values of those attributes
as per the section of the spec quoted by Bjoern Hoehrmann. If you want
to create a serialisation with the animated state then you'd want
rect.height.animVal.valueAsString (but then you're really taking a
snapshot, not a serialisation, and you'd want to drop animation
elements etc.).
