Cool! :-) A while ago, while crawling through the Batik SVN repository, I did notice about a foreignObject branch, but I really thought it was temporary and that code had already been merged into the trunk. Guess not!... :-D (I really never had tried to make serious use of foreignObject due to the lack of interoperability among implementations which currently exits IMO.) > Ah, I didn't think about the dynamic updates.

But static would already be great to start with. IMHO this could become a must-have feature which could then help push out a new Batik release. :-) > The only thing I noticed is that we probably need to find a way to make > requiredExtensions work.
