           Summary: tooltips not displayed

        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2

iirc 

in every case, where there is a title a tooltip should be raised.
in case of more than one, within an open element only the first is used.

furthermore and in particular, <use> can reference any named svg resource, ie
does not require symbol, g or any other specific element.

there is no requirement or expectation that <g>** should be used to enclose
titles.

**for the singular case where <g> is used, and a title is raised see:
https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16854

there has been some debate, about hierarchies of titles, but that is not part
of this  bug.

please check the specs as this is from my poor memory of 6 years ago, or
more....
