I think the problem is that importNode will create a new attribute in
the SVG DOM with the right name but it won't actually set the
attribute's value. Notice how in importNode the cases for text nodes,
CDATA sections and comments nodes do something to get the to-be-copied
node's value, while for the attributes it doesn't.
<caveat>
I haven't tested it though, so if the attribute values actually come
from somewhere else in the code that I haven't noticed, I could be
wrong.
</caveat>
But you say that it works for you? What version of Batik are you using?
