Cameron,
on what basis do you state:
>>Technically the document should be rendered up until the element that
has the <use> element with the missing xlink:href="" attribute.
the links you provide do not appear to mention what action to take for
an invalid reference.
clearly this is not the same as invalid xml else why not merely say
it's invalid?
like gifs and jpegs, I would expect them merely not to be displayed,
and possibly a marker or indicator provided.
would it be advisable at this stage to take this to the SVG WG?
supposing that I have not missed any indication as to how to interpret
the meaning of invalid reference
regards
~:"
we are not so far discussing missing attributes, please can we stick
to the thread?

and therefore should nothing be displayed? because that is the

Technically the document should be rendered up until the element that
has the <use> element with the missing xlink:href="" attribute.
it seems plain this is a wrong interpretation, as a single broken
link
would prevent a page being displayed.
as is the case with the current <use>.
<use> with a missing xlink:href="" attribute is definitely an error.
<a> is not, however, as stated in this section:
