Nickduino has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/svgwg:

== Clarify the handling of transforms for wrapped text ==
Specs:
* [Wrapped text](https://www.w3.org/TR/SVG2/text.html#TextLayoutAuto)
* [Transform](https://svgwg.org/svg2-draft/coords.html#TransformProperty)

I believe this use case isn't covered in the spec:

At least, it's not made clear enough and the current implementation in Inkscape is this:

Note that transforming **the shape** works: the text re-wraps in the new shape.
