api.SVGElement.error_event - The event is fired only on image in implementations
What type of issue is this?
Missing compatibility data
What information was incorrect, unhelpful, or incomplete?
The table states only about a general error event, but this doesn't say on which element this event is supported.
Per specs the error event should fire for all structurally external element, so ‘foreignObject’, ‘image’, ‘script’ and ‘use’. This event is also supposed to bubble.
UAs only fire it on <image> and it doesn't even bubble (Chromium does also fire script errors on the root <svg> in standalone documents).
What browsers does this problem apply to, if applicable?
Chromium (Chrome, Edge 79+, Opera, Samsung Internet), Firefox, Safari
What did you expect to see?
Maybe a list like
error bubbles: (none)
error on <image>: (all)
error on <use>: (none)
error on <foreignObject>: (none)
error on <script>: (none)
error on <svg> for script errors: (Chromium only)
