For SVG Tiny 1.2 user agents [1]:
* ... The user agent must not stop processing or rendering under any of  
the above situations, but at user option it may alert, log, or otherwise  
provide a notification that unsupported content was encountered.

For SVG 1.1 (where filters is a part), there are some classes of  
conformance for user agents (one of which is 'SVG Interpreter') [2]:
* A Conforming SVG Interpreter must parse any SVG document correctly. It  
is not required to interpret the semantics of all features correctly.
