What's your proposed handling of event handler content attributes? And
note
that the handling of these is not quite identical for HTML and SVG last
I
checked. :(
Is there a spec for how the event handler content attributes (with
reflection) work in SVG?
http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG/script.html#EventAttributes
http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG2/script.html#EventAttributes
I don't see any IDL for event handlers in the SVG spec, so per spec there
should only be content attributes... And only those that are specified for
some elements, unlike HTML where most event handlers are available
everywhere.
In any event I haven't intended any changes
here, whatever is already implemented sounds good.
I'm not sure what should be done with SVG. Clearly the SVG spec doesn't
reflect the "we should do whatever HTML does" idea.
If implementations
disagree, then getting agreement and a spec for it seems orthogonal to
which interface the IDL attributes sit on.
I think it would be bad to have an IDL attribute without a working content
attribute for a given element. That's just confusing.
