    <thetext>please provide a warning when validating SVG files that do not have a title.

According to the SVG specification:
       Authors should always provide a &apos;title&apos; child element to the outermost
&apos;svg&apos; element within a stand-alone SVG document.
http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG11/struct.html#DescriptionAndTitleElements

this has significant implications for Accessibility as title content in svg is similar to alt in html.</thetext>

Support for SVG validation is rather limited. The validator uses the
published machine-readable  DTDs, which may not include all the
recommendations from the prose of the specs. DTD validation for SVG is
too limited anyway, hence some current efforts to bring in different
technologies.</thetext>
