The spec itself >doesn't limit the string length for @unicode on <glyph>. Some implementations might limit it, but in principle there should be no limit. We support any length of string match for ligatures, so you could theoretically match an entire paragraph. Highly unlikley anyone would want to do that, but it will work. >I'm pretty sure it would work ok if you happened to have an 80 characters >ligature in an svgfont, but it's not really a common case :) Totally agreed.
