Just to clarify, not changing the DOM attribute values does seem to be normative. From SMIL 3.0: The presentation value which results from applying an animation is not visible through the DOM.[1] (That said, elsewhere there appear to be concessions for implementations where that is difficult.[2]) However, SVG has added interfaces for querying these values. That, however, means that creating a snapshot does take a fair bit of code as one needs to go through SVG's animated type interfaces rather than just hasAttribute/getAttribute. That might be unfortunate, but it's the case regardless of whether the attribute is created or not.
