 if CSS style sheets are not supported in the user agent:</p>

 <p class="issue">This needs to be reviewed.  It should at least
 use <code>@namespace</code> to cause the rules to match only
 SVG elements.  <code>attr(width)</code> won't do the right
 thing if the <span class="attr-name">'width'</span> attribute does
 not use a unit.  And what about when the attributes are being
 animated?  Presumably <code>attr()</code> doesn't look at animated
 values.</p>
