"xlink:title" should only be displayed on links (it belongs to the XLink
specification).

In SVG, the "title" and "desc" child elements can/should be used for this
purpose [1] (the specification suggests the tooltip behavior, see also another
proposal for that [2]). Using the "title"/"desc" as tooltips is already covered
by bug 16854.

Note that, although Firefox does display "xlink:title" as a tooltip in any
element, that is IMO a somehow broken behavior.

I'd say this issue should be marked invalid...
