I see firefox is using SVG filters. Looks like IE 10 supports them as well (http://caniuse.com/#feat=svg-filters). Possible to make an exception for that version of IE?

Hi!

You are right in that IE 10 supports SVG filters. But it does this only within the scope of the SVG itself. In contrast, Firefox can make SVG filters sort of break out of the SVG and extend their reach to HTML, too. This is the reason why we cannot use SVG filters for our HTML in IE 10. Plus, we can also not fall back to Microsoft's legacy filters since they removed them altogether, even when triggering IE < 10 legacy modes. Very sad.
