Firefox has a known bug that it doesn't do CSS inheritance properly with use. 
You're supposed to inherit at the point of instantiation not the point of 
definition I think so the example's fill="inherit" would not be done correctly 
in Firefox. I might be wrong, but I think this shouldn't affect the bounds 
though in this case.

Best regards
