(Core :: SVG, defect)

appears to fail because it doesn't get the colors specified in the stylesheet linked via the <?xml-stylesheet ... ?> in the resource document.

Isn't this just a special case of the "we don't apply CSS to <use> targets based on the target location" bug?

Reducing the test, yes, you're right.

That's annoying -- seems like bugzilla putting the bug number for attachments into the attachment URL as a subdomain break referencing other attachments as external documents. Grr.

I think this is invalid for SVG 2. The style element is outside the shadow tree so is ignored.
