I do sometimes want “color” to just cascade into the SVG elements without doing anything. But I also think a bitmap could also be understood similarly: black–to–white get automatically understood as background–to–foreground?
Exactly! But I'd like to step back a bit and just ask: are we missing an opportunity to define a new type of image? In addition to foreground color, what *else* would we like these 'image glyphs' to inherit? Font-size? x-height? line-height?
