This results for example in
values="A.svg#svgView(viewBox(0,0,1,1)%3BpreserveAspectRatio(none));
A.svg#svgView(viewBox(-1,-1,2,1)%3BpreserveAspectRatio(xMidYMid))"
right?

Such an example might help some authors - I think, several never
did this manually. For example PHP has a function to do this
automatically.

But looks fine, of course.
Is this already interpreted by some viewers or something new, that still
has to be done? Any information about this?
Just to be sure: Viewers still have to decode it behind the # in an URI/IRI?

Yes, sure, this approach to solve the problem looks fine.
