Robert,
Thanks very much for giving our article a read and for providing some good food for thought.
In short, we agree with your comments. SVG is open-source so we ought to stay away from any proprietary features.
On the other hand, when we originally built the toolkit a year and a half ago, we simply wanted to get it done. Most of our users prefer the easiest method of viewing the SVG, therefore, the Adobe viewer was the easiest solution. Having said that, now that we have the toolkit functioning and are more familiar with dynamic data-driven SVG we should and intend to go back and remove the proprietary features.
Down the road, if we keep our SVG adhering to the W3C standards, we wont have to worry what viewer is being used.
Thanks for reminding us.
