Re: [svgwg] should textPath elements parented to tspans or other textPaths render?

I think that would be covered by (prose):

> After positioning all characters within the ‘textPath’, the current text position is set to the end point of the path, after adjusting for the ‘startOffset’ in the case of paths that are a single closed loop. In other words, text that follows a ‘textPath’ element (but is still inside a ‘text’ element) that does not have explicit positioning information (‘x’ and ‘y’ attributes) is positioned from the end of the path.

(https://svgwg.org/svg2-draft/text.html#TextLayoutPath just before 11.9)

And also, maybe more importantly, part of the text layout algorithm (https://svgwg.org/svg2-draft/text.html#TextLayoutAlgorithm) where I think the words to look for are "after path" (referenced near the end).
