Yes, that's what I want. I want to change the colour of an element that is
pulled in from another document via 'use'. The symbol itself doesn't have any
colouring (no 'stroke:rgb(r,g,b)' in the 'style' attribute). The colour should be
inherited from the 'style' attribute of the 'use' element. Isn't that what inheritance
in SVG is about?

I'll try that. Or is there another way to get what I described above?

Well, I tried to change the attributes directly, but then the Canvas won't
redraw the elements until the mouse is moved. That's why I queue the attribute updates
to the UpdateManager. I didn't find a way without that overhead.
