There are a few places (all deprecated) where SVG2 still depends on
CSSValue, a DOM Level 2 Style interface which is itself deprecated,
and has been for many years.

I'm planning to add UseCounters in Blink to these interfaces to see
how much use there really is of them, but before I do, does anyone
else have any reason to believe we should keep them?  Alternately,
does anyone else have evidence that we can safely drop them?

I plan to report back in a few weeks with the usage results, so we can
hopefully simply drop them.
