Greetings, Inkscape gurus!

Inkscape 0.42 preserves baseProfile attributes, even
when they are no longer appropriate.

For example, open the attached file in Inkscape 0.42,
change the fill to a gradient and save the file. The
saved file still claims to be SVG 1.1 Tiny, but now
contains a gradient and CSS styling, neither of which
SVG 1.1 Tiny supports.

Suggested solution: always strip out baseProfile
attributes. Of course, you could instead try to figure
out when the baseProfile is still appropriate, but,
believe me, it's a whole lot easier just to remove it
unconditionally.
