Sure. I'd be happy with keeping the special SVG behaviour here too.
Ian, if you still would prefer a hook in the SVG spec for you to refer
to, rather than including this behaviour -- first <title> child of the
document element -- then I can define for example "SVG title element"
that represents that element.
