I have a pretty good idea why it doesn't work. For i-f-o the basic SVG 1.1 DOMImplementation is currently hard-coded but it actually needs to be selected based on the version attribute like for the e-g variant. I'm looking into that.
As for the black parallelogram, I may have to send you over to [EMAIL PROTECTED] since the same output appears when looking at the SVG in Batik's Squiggle Browser. Setting visibility="false" fixes that problem. Please note that the SVG 1.2 flowText feature is not finalized. The spec is still in draft mode. The semantics may not be clearly enough defined, yet, and Batik might also not do everything correctly, yet. I will report back when I've fixed the first problem above. Shouldn't be a biggy.
