I'm doing some work with SVGs and hit a problem with tspan elements returning 0 for getNumberOfChars().
I have searched Bugzilla and came up with an issue closed as fixed some 15 years ago (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=339039) which includes a test case (reproduced below).
In Firefox, this now reports 0 for all 4 tspans, however in Chrome and IE it reports 4 for all tspans which is what I would expect.
Is there some nuance I'm missing or is this a regression?
