Cross-origin <use>. We want to use an icon spritesheet, but all our assets are hosted on a CDN on another subdomain. Tbh we only want the sprite so the icons can use currentcolor, so styling external SVGs might be the real solution.

Styling external SVG is definitely a big gap. But it’s also getting filled! The solution is a new standard called Linked Parameters. And it’s getting implemented in Chromium, and also Firefox I believe.
