Oh yes, another suggestion which made my friend in Chrome Security
almost weep in happiness:

Let's kill the instance tree for <use> in the new DOM.  animVal and
the instanceTree constitute nearly the entirety of SVG's horrible
security/crashiness in our implementation, and I doubt we're very
unique.  The instance tree is also the big thing preventing us from
just re-explaining <use> in terms of Shadow DOM.
