Re: [svgwg] Compatibility mid-line rendering attribute to textPath

@fsoder This is more about the fact the what the browsers implement (de-facto web standard) and what the SVG specification language specifies are different. Only Edge implements the spec correctly and with some (perhaps?) unexpected results.

So I'm now thinking, would be best to define the current de-facto standard web browser behaviour as the default? And then, the specification standard as the optional one. Thus, if browsers actually want to implement and make available the standard SVG 1.1 text on a path algorithm (and SVG 2.0), and conform the same way as Edge, then they can choose to expose the new attribute, to enable triggering the non-default, but correct behaviour.
