Re: [SVG2 CR] viewport-fill, viewport-fill-opacity

Hello,

Opera Presto interprets viewport-fill for years - surely other viewers for tiny 
devices from this time as well.

For SVG 1.1 documents it would be a bug to interpret CSS backround properties,
but if already available in some viewers, maybe sufficient enough to mention 
this as properties and presentation attributes in the CR ...
Of course for all elements with a viewport.
