/**
*
* For each 'use' element, the SVG DOM maintains a shadow tree (the "instance tree") of objects of type SVGElementInstance. A SVGElementInstance represents a single node in the instance tree. The root object in the instance tree is pointed to by the instanceRoot attribute on the SVGUseElement object for the corresponding 'use' element.
*
* If the 'use' element references a simple graphics element such as a 'rect', then there is only a single SVGElementInstance object, and the correspondingElement attribute on this SVGElementInstance object is the SVGRectElement that corresponds to the referenced 'rect' element.
*
* If the 'use' element references a 'g' which contains two 'rect' elements, then the instance tree contains three SVGElementInstance objects, a root SVGElementInstance object whose correspondingElement is the SVGGElement object for the 'g', and then two child SVGElementInstance objects, each of which has its correspondingElement that is an SVGRectElement object.
*
* If the referenced object is itself a 'use', or if there are 'use' subelements within the referenced object, the instance tree will contain recursive expansion of the indirect references to form a complete tree. For example, if a 'use' element references a 'g', and the 'g' itself contains a 'use', and that 'use' references a 'rect', then the instance tree for the original (outermost) 'use' will consist of a hierarchy of SVGElementInstance objects, as follows:
* <CODE>
* SVGElementInstance #1 (parentNode=null, firstChild=#2, correspondingElement is the 'g')
* SVGElementInstance #2 (parentNode=#1, firstChild=#3, correspondingElement is the other 'use')
* SVGElementInstance #3 (parentNode=#2, firstChild=null, corresponding Element is the 'rect')
* </CODE>
