Comment:
1)  Please add a radiusY to the path arc command(s) so it is easier to create
ellipse shapes and elliptical arcs.  It would be very nice if the Canvas path
supported a similar API to that for creating SVG paths via JavaScript so
shapes could be exchanged between the two forms.  Perhaps even support for the
SVG Path mini-language (i.e.: "M0,0 L40,50 A... z").

2)  The "This box is non-normative..." overwrites the text below.  It's
especially troublesome when trying to print a copy for off-line reading.

3)  The document format is not well formed for printing.

4)  Will there be a PDF of this spec in the future?
