In my understanding setting begin="indefinite" and end="indefinite" on
the animation element defines that the animation is supposed to be
started and stopped with beginElement and endElement calls.
When doing that as in
<http://home.arcor.de/martin.honnen/svg/test2006082701.svg>
neither Opera 9 nor Adobe SVG viewer 3.0 have any problems in starting
the animation when you click 'GO' and stopping it when you click 'STOP'.

Is that what you want to achieve?
