Comment 6 for bug 488997

I am a polyglot, and this bug renders many of my Spanish, Chinese, Portuguese, French, German, Italian, Dutch,... SVG files unusable with inkview. (In the case of Chinese — the world’s largest speech community — ALL files are unusable.)

I honestly believe that this bug affects the MAJORITY OF WORLD-WIDE USERS, as very few languages (English, Latin, Hawaiian) can be written using only ASCII characters. All other languages either use an expanded version of Latin or a non-Roman script.

This bug should therefore be rated among the HIGH PRIORITY issues.
