           Summary: Allow xlinks to upload.wikimedia.org in SVG files
           Product: Wikimedia
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: Normal
         Component: General/Unknown
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]


As per bug 3537, rendering silently fails for SVG files that refer to external
resources, even those on our own server. I propose that linking to external
resources on the upload.wikimedia.org domain (using the xlink:href attribute of
the image tag) be allowed.

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Go to
<http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Svg_to_wikipedia_jpeg_ref_test_2.svg>.
2. The full-size version works in browsers that support SVG. They successfully
load
<http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/0/0d/SuperDisk_top_rear_components.JPG>.
Check to see if a server-generated preview is properly displayed.

Actual Results: Rendering of the preview silently fails.

Expected Results: Rendering of the preview should succeed because the image is
not stored on a different server (at least from the user's point of view) from
the SVG.
