    <thetext>&quot;The custom element type identifies a custom element interface and is a sequence of alphanumeric ASCII characters that must match the NCName production and contain a U+002D HYPHEN-MINUS character.&quot;

So HTML already tries to avoid the dash in new elements (because it&apos;s ugly), but the same might not hold true for SVG or MathML. Are SVG and MathML on board with never introducing new elements with dashes?</thetext>

    <thetext>Tab stated on behalf of SVG WG that they&apos;re not doing dashes. I will ask Math WG folks.</thetext>

    <thetext>One of Math WG co-chairs chimed in: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-math/2013Nov/0020.html

Even though this is his personal opinion, he does state that the group has no immediate plans to add new elements.

I am going to say that since we&apos;re now on the WG&apos;s radar, we can safely close this bug as fixed.</thetext>
