Description

I came across a problem when doing something in IntelliJ. The root cause is an exception from Batik. I have NO idea if this is expected behaviour - but I thought I would report it in case it's something Batik can resolve. Or maybe it's already resolved.

There are more details in the ticket I made for IntelliJ
https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-298319

Here's the cause in the IntelliJ logs:

org.w3c.dom.DOMException: invalid.element [http://www.w3.org/2000/svg, flowRoot]
	at org.apache.batik.dom.AbstractNode.createDOMException(AbstractNode.java:408)
	at org.apache.batik.anim.dom.SVGDOMImplementation.createElementNS(SVGDOMImplementation.java:202)
...

This is the element that causes the crash. If I remove this flowRoot element, then it works successfully.

    <flowRoot
       xml:space="preserve"
       id="flowRoot18"
       style="font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;font-size:40px;line-height:1.25;font-family:sans-serif;letter-spacing:0px;word-spacing:0px;fill:#000000;fill-opacity:1;stroke:none"
       transform="scale(0.26458333)"><flowRegion
         id="flowRegion20"><rect
           id="rect22"

           x="114.98382"
           y="251.22519" /></flowRegion><flowPara
         id="flowPara24" /></flowRoot>    <circle

       id="path32"
       cx="79.414413"
       cy="83.552322"
       r="14.169809" />
