Dragging or importing SVG files from Bridge to Figma

When I’m dragging or simply importing SVG files to Figma, I noticed that when I have ranked or labelled or otherwise ‘touched’ an SVG file, I can’t use it anymore in Figma. And the W3C Validator also reports some errors.

Here’s one example (057 AIL icon 2026), which I could easily drag from Bridge or import as a file in Figma. But after labelling it (which changes and saves some metadata), Figma can’t import it anymore. (Copying and pasting the artwork still works.)

BTW, it doesn't always happen ! The file (svg-4.svg) got a label from Bridge, but Figma accepts this one as normally.
