The guys that work on the spec agree with me that at least the case where the SVG is fully contained in its shadow tree should work "as expected" and they feel this is defined well enough in the spec:

See https://github.com/w3c/webcomponents/issues/179#issuecomment-320879635

"I think everyone would agree that this should work. What clarification is required in SVG spec?"

So if you still feel that the spec is not well enough defined for this case, please go ahead and tell them what statement in the spec would change your mind if added. 
Otherwise *they* won't be changing the spec and *you* won't be changing the implementation and Safari's SVG implementation *will stay mostly unusable* in shadow trees.
