-- API for extensions, this is still in flux. But, it is something that needs to be figured out. I know at one point we'd discussed using the SVG DOM from the W3C. I don't know how that would work out, or how difficult it would be. Bryce and I outlined some general functions that would be needed for "Command and Control" in the document above, but those ideas are definitely not fleshed out.
I'd say that at a minimum we'd need to expose our DOM. It goes both to being able to use standard scripts to interact (e.g. those that a content author might copy-n-paste from his XHTML/SVG mixed web page), and to animation.
It also would help us to hit the animation needs of SVG Tiny sooner.
