Define script element processing model #196
Description
SVG 2 has no details on how the script element is processed.
document.currentScript may return an SVGScriptElement, but we don't define how that is set.
See whatwg/html#913
Need to do some analysis to determine what else is missing.
Ideally we would defer as much as possible to the HTML spec. I think this is intended by the statement currently in the SVG spec that says:
A ‘script’ element is equivalent to the ‘script’ element in HTML
But that's not enough.

Question to the WG: What exactly do we need to specify?
AmeliaBR commentedon Jun 6, 2019
We probably need to find the exact algorithms & definitions in HTML to include by reference.

<AmeliaBR> Topic: Define script element processing model<AmeliaBR> github: https://github.com//issues/196
<AmeliaBR> chris: domenic already said (in an HTML PR) what needs to be done. We can copy the HTML edits.
<AmeliaBR> … I think we should get something in the spec & then ask them to review.
<AmeliaBR> krit: I think the changes are (1) include the new mixin, and (2) reference the right section.
<AmeliaBR> … anyone willing to do the edits?
<AmeliaBR> chris: I could take a try, but not super familiar with the topic.
<AmeliaBR> Amelia: OK. You can always bring the issue back up if anything is unclear.
<AmeliaBR> … Do we need a resolution?
<AmeliaBR> krit: Wait until we have a proposed text.
<AmeliaBR> chris: The bits about currentScript, is that implemented or defined anywhere?
<AmeliaBR> Amelia: I think it's defined in HTML, just need to acknowledge that that can be an SVG script.
