SVGReader - Unknown tag are not retrieved

[thomas-kl1]

Actually I know it's not a bug, but a feature.

SVG\Reading\SVGReader::$nodeTypes contain the allowed node types. However I'd like to read a SVG and retrieve all properties, even if there not implemented. There's a lot of elements: SVG Elements and it should impossible to implement all (hard work).

Otherwise it seems that the SVGReader class apply all properties as attributes to the parsed node. I understand that declaring specific node types is require in order to render the SVG, but In don't think so to read a SVG.
So, if the SVGReader do not find any concret class for the current parsed node, it should instantiate a new object. In order to instantiate the right node (SVGNode or SVGNodeContainer generic implementations), should we had a full associative array of elements (as key) with boolean (as value) which defined if an element is a container or a final node?

If I'm totally wrong and it's not the purpose of the library, please tell me :)

You are right, "unknown" nodes should not be discarded. I don't think differentiating between containers and non-containers is necessary — since we can never know for custom tags, it should always be an SVGNodeContainer.

This is now implemented in 5677a18. Nodes with an unknown tag name are retrieved in a generic implementation that supports everything supported by regular containers - i.e. attributes, styles, child nodes, and text content.
