Naming with OM in front of the classes #2

I was curious why you added OM on the SVG classes? Did you have conflicts with other libraries?

OM stands for "Object Model". The prefix is meant to clearly distinguish wrapper types and overlay types. Futhermore, there are cases where one needs to interact with both in the same class. Without a prefix, one would have to use fully qualified names.
