<pre>SVG Working group has resolved to deprecate xlink and allow href attribute on relevant nodes (<a href="https://www.w3.org/2012/09/19-svg-minutes.html#item05">https://www.w3.org/2012/09/19-svg-minutes.html#item05</a>), the according spec changes has been made (<a href="https://svgwg.org/svg2-draft/attindex.html">https://svgwg.org/svg2-draft/attindex.html</a>), and this has been brought to attention today during Sydney face to face meeting - <a href="https://www.w3.org/2016/02/03-svg-minutes.html">https://www.w3.org/2016/02/03-svg-minutes.html</a>
At this point Edge supports that, Chrome doesn't.
