>> Also, modern convention says you should do detection, not sniffing, so if you want to keep the svg in one, png in another, you should replace the Utilities.isInternetExplorer() check, with a Utilities.canDrawSVGToCanvasWithoutTainting() check, which does that, and checks for an exception. That way, if IE changes, it will get the desired behavior.

Beside the ones we are working around here, IE has other limitations. For example the Focus test does not work correctly because it does not render the blur filter correctly. Another limitation is data uri image has to be in url format.

If we make all the browser uses the png images, no test in MotionMark will be exercising the SVG code path. I think also we should not limit ourselves to IE bugs/limitations especially Safari, Chrome and FireFox behave the same but IE does not.

I was wrong when I said "this test is the only one that loads and renders SVG images in MotionMark master suite." Actually Suits test does render SVG images also.
