I'd argue that Opera's behaviour is the most intuitive to authors, and is the behaviour our users have asked us for, on www-svg and elsewhere. Yes, the x,y does get treated as a transform in the generated shadowtree, but they're still x,y-attributes on the <use> element, and so it's reasonable to expect that they behave the same as every other x,y attribute pair (in other words: they affect the bbox of the element).

Erik,
As I said in comment #3, I also agree that Opera's implementation is the most intuitive for users. Users will almost certainly not know how the <use> tree is implemented.
Would Opera be willing to change their implementation for the sake of cross-browser consistency? If not, we should really bring this back up on www-svg.
