Hi Anders,

Thank you for your message.  Yes, it's time for an update for doclint, to support all global attributes and new tags that might reasonably be used in doc comments, like `<svg>`.

I have filed JDK-8248437 for this.

Purely from a style point of view, it may be preferable to put SVG images in separate files in the doc-files subdirectory for the package, and to reference the files with an <img> element.

Hi List,

After upgrading from JDK 8 to JDK 11 javadoc began complaining on valid HTML5 constructs such as the "title" attribute and the "svg" element. The AdoptOpenJDK maintainers suggested using -Xdoclint=none but that seems more like a workaround than a solution.

thanx,
