Request: save file with svg: prefix on tags

[valkyr]

Hi all,

Could we possibly have the option to save files as a file type which includes the svg: prefix on every element? (how the code shown in the XML editor) Like so :

<svg:svg>
<svg:defs/>
<svg:g>
</svg:g>
</svg:svg

At the moment, to use SVG inline in my XHTML pages, I have to manually add the prefix to all of my SVG files...

(in order for the markup to pass W3C XHTML+MathML+SVG doctype validation)

basically, to achieve validation :

every element needs an svg: prefix
the [ xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" ] attribute needs to be dropped.
version attribute should = 1.1

an option to save files in this format would be helpful to web developers mixing SVG with other XML based languages...
