I have given up on ever seeing SVG text accepted. My thought is to just acquiesce and let HTML do the text work if that is what the W3 insists on.

So it’s not so much ‘getting these back’ as having multiple documents to refer to. I don’t think it’s a problem for an implementation to be running a bit ahead of the current level of a specification. It just points out the need to finish the current level in order to get to work on the next level.
