Well, SVG requires double precision to be compliant.  Not sure if that's going
to matter in the end.  But small rounding errors are quickly exaggerated when
you allow for transforms.  (Look at any large SVG on the web to see what I
mean.)

Right now SVG has its own SVGLength class, which it uses to all of its layout
in the DOM.  The goal (in the short term!) is to get rid of this class, and
instead use some sort of length class on the Renderers.  It would be nice to
unify with Length, but if that would cause a major slowdown for HTML, then I
guess SVG will have to do its own thing.

I'm sure with all the brains behind WebKit you all will come up with with a
smart solution which works for both cases.
