addClass/removeClass/toggleClass methods does not work with svg nodes

[anonymous]

html:

<svg><rect id="test" class="someClass"></svg>

js:

var test = $("#test");
console.log(test.attr("class")); // someClass
test.addClass("otherClass");
console.log(test.attr("class")); // someClass
test.removeClass("someClass");
console.log(test.attr("class")); // someClass
