Why you made a new bug report and converting [[Bugzilla: 5710]]? I've not found you bug and the description is not clear! Because it is not only not supported, it makes large full filled rectangles!

PRO: The description here is much much more clearer then the vague one in bug 5710. It happens that previously filed tickets cannot be find and that duplicates are created. It's not a problem at all if you don't find a bug immediately - you can file a new one and somebody at some point would mark duplicates as such.

PRO: Please avoid repetitive comments. I've already explained it in comment 3, plus nobody "converted" Bugzilla:5710. If something is unclear, feel free to send me a private email, as the Bugzilla workflow is not specific to the issue covered in this bug report. Thanks for your understanding!

*** Bug 5710 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

I propose the close this bug as WONTFIX. Because this flowRoot feature is not part of any SVG standard (it's only contained in a working draft of SVG 1.2) and its usage will almost certainly result in compatibility problems.

It is also beneficial that this flowed text appears as black rectangle (or whatever) to see this false crap code immediately.

Just to comment, I also support closing this task. As Perhelion said, this element was part of the SVG 1.2 draft, but that was never finalized and was later scrapped. The current standard that was finalized is SVG 1.1 which does not have the flow elements. SVG 2 is being worked on as a potential successor of SVG 1.1, so no reason in asking for support for a element from a now defunct draft.

The required support is to make it clear that it is invalid. Alternativly this bug can be close in favor of a more general error handling task for SVG.

pseudo code:
$errors = validateSvg()
if(empty($errors)) continueUpload()
else {
echo "The SVG is corrapted. Errors: $errors";
}
