Do touch events work with SVG? [duplicate]

Question

I've been playing around a bit with SVG+ECMAScript, and I find it impressive.

I've recently found out that (X)HTML5 has a ‘touch events’ specification, so that browsers such as the Android browser, Firefox, and Chrome/Chromium have DOM support for multitouch screens.

Can I access these same events from ECMAScript in a standalone SVG file? (I.e. without any (X)HTML5.) If so, a simple example SVG file would be much appreciated.

Note: By ‘touch events’, I'm referring to standard touch events as defined by the W3C and not any proprietary API defined by Apple or others.

There actually was discussion about this and it is possible.
