The primitiveUnits attribute specifies the coordinate system for the various length values within the filter primitives and for the attributes that define the filter primitive subregion.
Only one element is using this attribute: <filter>

- userSpaceOnUse
- This value indicates that any length values within the filter definitions represent values in the current user coordinate system in place at the time when the

This value indicates that any length values within the filter definitions represent fractions or percentages of the bounding box on the referencing element.
