ISSUE-2253: <foreignObject>s should be allowed as children of container elements

foreignobject-context

<foreignObject>s should be allowed as children of container elements

State:
CLOSED
Product:
SVG Full 1.1
Raised by:
Cameron McCormack
Opened on:
2009-03-27
Description:
In SVG 1.1, the DTD requires that <foreignObject> elements only be used as children of a <switch>. In SVG Tiny 1.2, a <foreignObject> can be a child of a container element. Should we create an erratum to loosen this in 1.1? You can, after all, use conditional attributes on elements that are not children of a <switch>.
