[svgwg] Issue: Number syntax: digit-sequence "." marked as Paths chapter

dirkschulze has just labeled an issue for https://github.com/w3c/svgwg as "Paths chapter":

== Number syntax: digit-sequence "." ==
SVG Path data as well as SVG transforms and probably other SVG specific attributes that take numbers allow: `1.`.

It seems only Edge does support this:

https://codepen.io/krit/pen/rvdOQX

Should this be removed? Do we just need more tests?

Note: CSS numbers do not support this syntax either.

https://www.w3.org/TR/SVG/coords.html#TransformAttribute (replaced by CSS Transforms but sill relevant since the number syntax should be defined the same for all appearances. https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/2623#issuecomment-388005994)
