As part of aligning SVG with some not-so-HTML-specific features of
HTML, the SVG WG would like to support data-* attributes on SVG
elements. In mixed HTML/SVG documents, it seems like you would want
to be able to use these attributes regardless of whether the elements
are HTML or SVG, or indeed MathML.
Does it make sense to move HTMLElement.dataset up to Element, so that
all elements can benefit from it? If not, could this attribute be
split out on to a separate interface that we could have SVGElement
implement?
(I'm also going to be looking at the other global attributes that
HTML elements have to see if any make sense in SVG too.)
Thanks,
Cameron
I'm also in favour of making any reasonable global feature act the same
way across html/mathml/svg (hence the earlier request to move innerHTML
and friends up to Element so they apply to MathML).
