I would like to see some of the text support available to XHTML documents be made available to SVG too. I suggest doing this by allowing all xhtml-namespaced inline elements within compound SVG+XHTML documents, e.g. <svg xmlns="&svgNS;" xmlns:xhtml="&xhtmlNS;" version="1.1"> <text>This <xhtml:em>exciting</xhtml:em> text can <xhtml:br/>flow onto several lines!</text> </svg>

Interesting. We've certainly talked about going the other way (allowing SVG inline in HTML w/o namespacing), but not HTML inline in SVG.

That would be invalid according to SVG, and I wouldn't want to suggest supporting that. However, you could do this with <foreignObject>, where it would be valid per specs and already supported in other UAs.
