Bug ID: 58920
Summary: lang support for SVG images
Product: Parsoid
Version: unspecified

OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal

This was added to the PHP parser in bug 32987. Basic parsoid support was added
in change Iae50f6e4948844b94a66f8437e12e05aa3ec1685.
Currently Parsoid set the lang attribute on the <img> and references the SVG
directly in the <img> tag's src attribute. This is semantically correct.
However, in my tests, Firefox and Chrome (and all other browsers?) ignore the
current lang when directly embedding SVG content.
Further, the SVG spec itself appears to be somewhat broken:
http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG11/struct.html#SystemLanguageAttribute says that the
system language should be *operating system's* language, not the current
document language. Therefore, if I'm viewing he.wikipedia.org from my standard
en desktop, all the SVGs will still be in English. That seems wrong.
So there are two wrongs here -- Parsoid isn't implementing this exactly the
same as the PHP parser, and the PHP parser appears to be misusing the
systemLanguage attribute. Hopefully someone will straighten this out
eventually.
