Chrome 19.0.1084.52 makes elements appear semitransparent, breaks opacity input

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Just a heads up from the latest crome, it broke the trunk build.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Draw overlapping elements
2. Elements appear semitransparent, when transparency was not specified
3. Using the opacity slider doesn't have any effect

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Elements should not appear semitransparent, the opacity input should work

In what browser did you experience this problem? (ALL, Firefox, Opera, etc)
Chrome. The rest (Safari included) work fine.

In what version of SVG-edit does the problem occur? (Latest trunk, 2.5.1,
etc)

It appears to be broken in all versions.

Perhaps this requires filing a bug on Chromium, but I can't reproduce it 
outside of SVG Edit.

If you fire up web inspector and change the value within the code it doesn't 
update the opacity either. I've tried to isolate the case in a jsfiddle but it 
doesn't manifest: http://jsfiddle.net/2BGL8/

This was fixed by around Chrome 21. The problem was that the SVG animation that 
happens when you create a new element would not complete, leaving elements at 
around 0.98 opacity.
