Hmm. Probably you have a valid point here. While usecase of
transforming html to svg is unclear to me, I can not find a way to do
it in Firefox.
Svg embedded in html worked OK in firefox back in 2006 and is still
here.

SunFire X-series ILOM web-interface, for example. Unusable in opera.
IBM's HMC web-interface. Unusable in opera.
Anything based on Oracle's ADF will get you one big 'you're not welcome
here, boo' if you use opera.
Sadly, some of us need to use browsers to do work, not to surf
Internets.

Ok, but. This implies that opera's implementation of HTML standard is
flawed somehow, as webpages require additional testing.

True for JS, false for cookies. Right-clicking on the page in firefox
and choosing 'View Page Info' will lead one to a fancy per-site control
for cookies and other stuff. Works out of the box.
