Re: [svgwg] Decimal point not allowed according to Path Data ENBF (#926)

Indeed, and also things like `1.0e-42` should be allowed too. This was correct in SVG 1.1, see:

https://www.w3.org/TR/SVG11/paths.html#PathDataBNF

I believe the idea is that in SVG 2.0, it should delegate the definition of "number" to CSS.

There are in fact a few other things that were broken when the grammar was rewritten between 1.1 and 2.0, see:

- https://github.com/w3c/svgwg/issues/752
- https://github.com/w3c/svgwg/issues/807
- https://github.com/w3c/svgwg/pull/778

Is there someone on the committee and/or with merge rights that can volunteer to review these changes, integrate them, and close all these related issues? The above PR is a good place to start as it's quite a trivial change: only one line modified. If someone is willing to review and merge PRs, starting with the one above, then I can take the time to volunteer to make other PRs to fix the remaining grammar problems.
