The one odd thing in it is that it still claims SVG markup needs a namespace. Which it doesn't, SVG became part of the HTML5 spec and emphatically should _not_ use namespaces when used as "just another element" inside an HTML document.

(even though you do need a namespace when creating svg elements through createElementNS, both "of course" and "unfortunately", and of course you need namespaces if you're creating an actual stand-alone SVG document)
