[BATIK-562] Script events don't trigger on <defs> elements

• Type: Bug
• Status: In Progress
• Resolution: Unresolved
• Affects Version/s: 1.5
• Component/s: Scripting
• Environment: Operating System: Windows XP; Platform: PC

Description

Basically, when a script event is defined on an element in <defs> it doesn't
seem to trigger. If it's added to a <use> element referencing the def it works.
If included on both, only the <use> script event fires.

Example is included below. Tested this on the Adobe SVG plugin 6.0 in both
Explorer and Firefox and it triggers both events, the <use> event and the <def>
event.
