Hello WG.

I see in the table in 16.2.18 that transform lists can be animated only
with the <animateTransform> element.  It seems to me that it would be
useful to allow animating with <set>, since otherwise to perform a
discrete animation of @transform you must do a very short continuous
animation, like:

  <animateTransform attributeName="transform" type="scale" to="10"
                    dur=".001"/>
               
Opera already allows using <set> on @transform.  Batik doesn’t, but
could easily be changed to allow this.

Thanks,

Cameron
