Then browsers will follow the parsing algorithms and treat it
accordingly. For backwards compatibility and interoperability, the spec
covers how to handle all sorts of invalid i
in their mask image.
Again, consider Twitter: if they have an icon which already is a solid
shape of the correct colour (so it can be used as a colour icon, too),
why should they have to specify that colour a second time in their HTML?
You already know what the colour is, from the icon itself.
