svg inside html #22

reqflow relies on libxml2, which is pretty intolerant regarding SVG inside HTML.
Consider the following simple HTML file:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html><head><title>hi</title></head>
    <body>
        <svg width="400" height="200">
            <circle cx="150" cy="100" r="50" />
        </svg>
    </body>
</html>

Using the following req:

document t -path t.html -req plop(.*)

This gives:

$ reqflow trac -c t.req
./t.html:4: HTML parser error : Tag svg invalid
        <svg width="400" height="200">
                                     ^
./t.html:5: HTML parser error : Tag circle invalid
            <circle cx="150" cy="100" r="50" />
                                             ^

Requirements of t                                  Requirements Downstream

This seems to be linked to a limitation of libxml2 which doesn't parse the SVG tags correctly, but is this something that could be worked around in reqflow?
