- In both in HTML and EPUB, for improved accessibility, added the css rule `a[href] {text-decoration: underline;}` to make sure links are underlined. Previously, we underlined all `a` elements, which ignored prior usage as an link target.

- handling of inline SVG has been improved.
- the inline SVG element is now handled whether or not it has set the svg namespace.
