According to the SVG 2 spec, this should no longer be required. Chromium version 137 is will remove this requirement. https://chromestatus.com/feature/5128141573718016 Rather than <svg> <use href="heart.svg#icon"></use> </svg> It should be possible to reference an entire SVG files directly: <svg> <use href="heart.svg"></use> </svg> In a time of HTTP/2, there is no longer a performance need to use sprite sheets. Keeping SVG as separate files is an easier approach. When using <use> for an icon system, needing to add an id to every SVG is laborious and error prone.

Probably things to explore around. https://searchfox.org/wubkat/rev/85b73124f671d6d8fbe2b6dc730b98711b42326d/Source/WebCore/svg/SVGUseElement.cpp#447-482 2110137 2 webkit-bug-importer 2025-04-10 02:08:13 -0700 <rdar://problem/148973201> 2210076 3 karlcow 2026-05-12 03:04:41 -0700 > The ‘use’ element can reference an entire SVG document by specifying an ‘href’ value without a fragment. Such references are taken to be referring to the root element of the referenced document. — https://w3c.github.io/svgwg/svg2-draft/struct.html#UseElementHrefAttribute 2210080 4 karlcow 2026-05-12 03:17:49 -0700 https://wpt.fyi/results/svg/struct/reftests/use-external-svg-resource-no-fragment-id.html 2210088 5 karlcow 2026-05-12 03:52:15 -0700 Pull request: https://github.com/WebKit/WebKit/pull/64752 2212339 6 ews-feeder 2026-05-19 23:33:06 -0700 Committed 313550@main (9ba5d25ffcf1): <https://commits.webkit.org/313550@main> Reviewed commits have been landed.
