I don't think I follow. AFAIK 'getRoot(rootNode)' appends the SVG
content as children of the rootNode, it doesn't touch the attributes on
'rootNode'. Also I think it always set's the xmlns attribute on the node
it appends.

This depends a lot on what you are trying to do. The SVGGraphics2D
is really designed to act as a sort of 'print to SVG' engine, not a
'simple' factory interface for SVG.
If you are only interested in creating simple 'rect', 'circles' or
'lines', you may be better off just writing the code yourself, but if
you have a big blob of existing Java drawing code and you just want to
spit out a high quality SVG version of that drawing SVGGraphics2D is a
great tool.

No the SVGGraphics2D (for a variety of good reasons) is fairly well
tied to outputing DOM.
