AngularJS ng-href and svg xlink

Question

I\'d like some input on using xml namespaced attributes with angular.

The problem is angular comes with a couple of directives to handle writing attributes such as h

I solved the same problem with the following modules:

Module for SVGs:

var app = angular.module('Svgs', []);

angular.forEach([
    { ngAttrName: 'ngXlinkHref', attrName: 'xlink:href' },
    { ngAttrName: 'ngWidth', attrName: 'width' },
    { ngAttrName: 'ngHeight', attrName: 'height' }
], function (pair) {

    var ngAttrName = pair.ngAttrName;
    var attrName = pair.attrName;

    app.directive(ngAttrName, function (IeHelperSrv) {

        return {

            priority: 99,

            link: function (scope, element, attrs) {

                attrs.$observe(ngAttrName, function (value) {

                    if (!value) return;

                    attrs.$set(attrName, value);
                    if (IeHelperSrv.isIE) element.prop(attrName, value);
                });
            }
        };
    });
});

Module for IE detection:

angular.module('IeHelper', []).factory('IeHelperSrv', function () {

    return {
        isIE: checkForIE.isIE,
    }
});

var checkForIE = {
    init: function () {
        this.isIE = (navigator.userAgent.indexOf('MSIE') != -1);
    }
};

checkForIE.init();

HTML:

<!-- image has initial fake source, width and height to force it to render -->
<image xlink:href="~/Content/Empty.png" width="1" height="1"
    ng-xlink-href="{{item.imageSrc}}"
    ng-width="{{item.width}}" ng-height="{{item.height}}"
    ng-cloak
    />
