SVG example showing the blur effect with sRGB and linearRGB

When using a gaussian blur filter effect, the resulting image is lightened when using linearRGB for color interpolation. The attached file shows the color alteration. When using the sRGB for color interpolation, results are consistent across browsers, yet the blur effect is less desirable.

This bug has been witnessed on several occasions:
- http://stackoverflow.com/questions/24295043/svg-gaussian-blur-in-safari-unexpectedly-lightens-image
- http://stackoverflow.com/questions/22615663/safari-renders-wrong-colors-when-using-blur-filter

>From the comments on the pages mentioned above, it seems to have been introduced since Safari 7.
