CC'ing some of the rendering experts.

Our display="none" handling seems flawed, compared to other browsers.
When embedding eg. an external document (no matter if SVG, or HTML), one can write:

var document = myEmbed.getSVGDocument();
myEmbed.style.display = "none";

.... let style recalc etc ...

myEmbed.style.display ="inline";
document is now no longer valid, as the referenced document of "myEmbed" gets reloaded (RenderEmbeddedObject has been destructed, when setting display="none", and is now reloaded).

Specific question for Eric: It seems you're just working on a fix for that problem, is that right? (Thinking of bug 27775)
