[webkit-help] Status of Webkit support for external <use> xlink:href references?

[Stardrive Engineering]

Hello Webkit,

Recently there has been good news that the following Webkit bug/issue was resolved :

Bug 12499: External <use> xlink:href references do not work

https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12499

I'm hoping to use this essential feature ASAP. When would this feature be available for use in Safari or Chrome browsers or by any other means? Or there any demos of this feature to see? I saw the following GIST which has a workaround that works, not sure if this is directly related, it does not use an external file for DEFS so likely it is not related to the bug fix?

There are many requests for this feature, here are a couple of them :

Thanks so much for your help with this,

Thomas
