Hm.  Looking at the source code, this is stuff like:

<object data="../../svg/animate-dom-01-f.svg" width="480" height="360" 
type="image/svg+xml"><p style="font-size:300%;color:red">FAIL</p></object>

Adding support for this would be pretty simple, I think (just treat this
like an <img> tag, more or less), but is this a bug fix or a new
feature?  >"?  If it's a bug, I can whip up a fix...
