Re: [svgwg] grammar for "closepath can substitute for final coordinate" is broken

That looks very much like the grammar I was referencing and looks unhappily like the same problems.

What I'm going to try to do is translate that grammar to something testable, using as basis the project https://github.com/hughsk/svg-path-parser/ which uses [peg.js](https://pegjs.org/) underneath.  This is a product of Gavin Kistner (aka @Phrogz) working against the SVG 1.1 grammar.  I started hassling him there and ended up here.  ([just deserts](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desert_(philosophy)) for me?)

I'd rather have something more like concrete reasons (and demonstrable) for complaint than just "it looks wrong".

Question: Is there a sense of what the resolution for w3c/svgwg/issues/286 will be?  I could re-introduce `floating-point-constant` into the grammar and perhaps be able to show necessity vis-a-vis extant path strings?
