To go along with the recent discussion on namespaces, I would like to
chime in on the data segment.  Instead of <d ...> <svg> .. </svg></d> what
we want is one of the following two options.
1
<d ...> 
<svg:svg xmlns:svg="http://www.w3.org/1999/SVG"> 
        <svg:path .../>
        ... 
</svg:svg> 
</d>
or 2
<d ...>
<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/SVG">
        <path .../>
</svg?
</d>
These two examples are equivalent as far as the XML spec goes, and expat
will treat them similarly (and I _think_ the user of expat - us - won't be
able to tell the difference).  So it's mostly just a preference on our
part.
But we do need to pick one.
