"ClipPath" - Creates a new SVG clipPath. A clip path is a clipping mask. Within the selection, the element placed on top of the others will be used as a clipping path.

"Mask" - A SVG Mask is a vector or bitmap element. Within the selection, the element placed on top of the others will be used as a mask. A mask uses the alpha channel to hide or show elements.
