Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Try the link attached. Actual Results: "Some Text" is not displayed, instead there is an empty canvas instead. Expected Results: "Some Text" should be displayed.
The WHATWG specification states that it should be in the XHTML 1 namespace. The specification is an extension to XHTML 1. If you disagree with that take it to the WHATWG mailing list and not here. As far as this part is concerned, Mozilla is a conforming UA.
