The SVG 2.0 draft, Text chapter, TSpan element, attributes list, textLength attribute definition contains a note:
https://svgwg.org/svg2-draft/text.html#TextElementTextLengthAttribute
```
<p class="note">
This attribute is not intended for use to obtain effects such
as shrinking or expanding text.
</p>
```
Is this for text with varying amounts of content? Or for a specific pre-computed/stored text, with possibility for author computed exact textLength alignment adjustments? Here it seems to me that the textLength is the metric aimed/adjusted for, and not the width of any containing ancestor. Perhaps we could come up with even better ways to solve this still?
