If I'm following correctly
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/freetype/freetype-demos/-/commit/626b43db566f907fa7b6926705e914259c54b9cf
is working around a bug that results from rsvg taking an svg2
interpretation of width/height. That seems a bit odd as the opentype spec
specifically references http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG11 and the svg documents in
Google-origin ot-svg seem to explicitly indicate that they are in svg 1.1
(<svg ...xmlns... version="1.1">) and thus probably shouldn't be
interpreted using svg 2 conventions.

For context, "Google-origin ot-svg" is likely built by
https://github.com/googlefonts/nanoemoji. Based on a quick glance at some
of our testdata, e.g.
https://github.com/googlefonts/nanoemoji/blob/main/tests/rect_picosvg.ttx,
it looks to me like we followed the examples given in
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/typography/opentype/spec/svg#glyph-identifiers
and do not include viewbox or width/height. We assume units to be
interpreted as advised in
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/typography/opentype/spec/svg#coordinate-systems-and-glyph-metrics
.

Cheers, Rod S.
