+  When an element is stripped from the formatting tree,
+  then any SVG attributes on that element
+  that control the layout and formatting of its child content
+  (or shadow DOM content)
+  are ignored when rendering the contents.
+  However, SVG [=presentation attributes=]
+  continue to affect CSS property inheritance,
+  the same as CSS styles set in any other way.
+  
+  Issue(w3c/csswg-drafts#2502):
+  Is this description clear enough to identify
+  the SVG attributes affected by ''display: contents''?
+  
+
+  <div class="note">
+  
+	The intention here is that 
+    the ''display: none'' behavior applies
+    whenever the "rendering context" inside the element
+    is different than the context outside of it.
+    If the element's child elements would not be valid children
+    of the element's parent,
+    you cannot simply hoist them up the formatting tree.
+    
+    For example, text content and text formatting elements in SVG
+    require a <{text}> element context;
+    if you remove a <{text}>,
+    its child text content and elements are no longer valid.
+    For that reason, ''display: contents'' on <{text}>
+    prevents the entire text element from being rendered.
+    In contrast, any content inside a <{tspan}> or <{textPath}>
+    is also valid content inside the parent text formatting context,
+    so the hoisting behavior applies for these elements.
+    
+    Similarly, if hoisting would convert the children from
+    [=non-rendered elements=]
+    (e.g., a shape inside a <{pattern}> or <{symbol}>)
+    to [=rendered elements=]
+    (e.g., a shape that is a direct child of the <{svg}>),
+    that is an invalid change of rendering context.
+    Never-rendered container elements therefore cannot be "un-boxed"
+    by ''display: contents''.
+    (Also, authors cannot override the 'display' property on these elements:
+    it is forced to ''none'' by an ''!important'' user agent style rule.)
+    
+ </div>
 
-	Note: The intention here is that "nested container" elements--
-	elements which have the same sort of "rendering context"
-	both outside and inside themselves,
-	such that it's <em>meaningful</em> to put their contents
-	into the context of their parents--
-	get stripped and hoist their contents like normal for ''display: contents''.
-	Anything else,
-	where their contents are handled in a totally separate context from their parent,
-	just removes itself entirely.
