By halfway I mean SVG Tiny 1.1, per the spec. The "half" part is not implementing SVG Basic or full.

If we think about the differences in implementing a recommendation as trivial and yet vital as html or xhtml, then i am clearly against the implementation (halfway). It would be still better to use the adobe svg-viewer, which at least tries to implement the svg-rec. to a great extent..
