Re: [svgwg] SVG 2 spec section 13.5.7 (probably) incorrect for miter-clip (and arcs?) (#745)

The SVG Working Group just discussed `SVG 2 spec section 13.5.7 (probably) incorrect for miter-clip (and arcs?)`, and agreed to the following:

* `RESOLUTION: Clipped line for arc-miters is always a straight line and adjusted to the previous resolution to always include at least the bevel area.`

&lt;krit> Tav_: There is one additional comment to the last discussion.<br>
&lt;krit> Tav_: Cuts on corners. You have a bevel (you want to fall back to)<br>
&lt;krit> Tav_: It could be that you cut back further than the bevel and we shouldn't<br>
&lt;krit> AmeliaBR: Which is consistent with our previous resolution<br>
&lt;krit> AmeliaBR: A consequence is that the shape might be more complicated than expected.<br>
&lt;krit> Tav_: I don't thin it would be more complicated... it is a corner case<br>
&lt;AmeliaBR> from October 21, we resolved: The "line join shape" is never less than the shape defined for a bevel join, regardless of the stroke-miterlimit value.<br>
&lt;krit> Tav_: I am working on a text change. But build scripts seem to require pythin2<br>
&lt;krit> AmeliaBR: So your recommandation is no change to the previous resolution<br>
&lt;krit> AmeliaBR: ... if problems come up during implementing we will discuss them?<br>
&lt;krit> Tav_: You should not push a corner further back than the bevel would be the proposal.<br>
&lt;krit> Tav_: I think we should add this as addition<br>
&lt;krit> Tav_: more a clarification<br>
&lt;krit> AmeliaBR: so the cut off line should always be a straight line for arcs. And we need to make sure that it is never less than a bevel.<br>
&lt;krit> AmeliaBR: And you are willing to do the edits?<br>
&lt;krit> Tav_: yes<br>
&lt;krit> propose RESOLUTION: Clipped line for arc-miters is always a straight line and adjusted to the previous resolution to always be in the bevel area.<br>
&lt;krit> RESOLUTION: Clipped line for arc-miters is always a straight line and adjusted to the previous resolution to always include at least the bevel area.<br>
