If the clipPath element is used for clipping, then the following might 
be of interest.

Came across a limitation in Qt regarding SVG for marker symbols 
recently:
https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/issues/50208

Julien investigated and opened a ticket at Qt:
https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-106720

The outcome was that Qt uses SVG Tiny, which includes only a subset of 
the features included in the SVG Full spec.

Looks like the clipPath element is not supported by SVG Tiny:
https://www.w3.org/TR/SVGTiny/#sec-eleind

Don't know if there are any plans to support SVG Full in Qt, from the 
ticket linked above I didn't got this impression.

Maybe there's a way to use something else instead of clipPath for 
clipping, which is supported by SVG Tiny.

Cheers Björn
