Svg clipPath in AngularJS app with HTML Base Element

Question

I use svg clipPath in my AngularJS project. I have a problem with specifying a relative url to the clipPath because i need to use the <base> element in my project.

For example this code works in a project without base, but not in a project with <base href="/">

<svg width="120" height="120"
     viewPort="0 0 120 120" version="1.1"
     xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">

    <defs>
        <clipPath id="myClip">
            <rect x="10" y="10" width="60" height="60"></rect>
        </clipPath>
    </defs>

    <g clip-path="url(#myClip)">
        <circle cx="30" cy="30" r="20"/>
        <circle cx="70" cy="70" r="20"/>
    </g>

</svg>

How can this be solved? I use ui-router, if that is relevant to the question...

This question is about the same, but the "solution" the OP found was to remove the base which isn't a solution in my case.

Change

<g clip-path="url(#myClip)">

So that you're using an absolute URL + a fragment identifier rather than just a fragment identifier on its own. E.g. url(http://mydomain.com/mypage#myClip)

You may be able to remove some parts e.g. the http and the domain if the base tag matches the absolute URL so /mypage#myClip might work.
