[svgwg] Implementing CSS Text Wrapping in SVG (#942)

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

== Implementing CSS Text Wrapping in SVG ==
Wrapping text remains a serious problem in SVG. The SVG 2 specification [defines a mechanism for text-wrapping](https://www.w3.org/TR/SVG2/text.html#TextLayoutAuto) using the existing CSS text-wrapping algorithm, which should be pretty simple to implement.

While there doesn't seem to be an appetite for implementing new features for SVG, this particular one is low-hanging fruit that would be a major benefit for authoring SVG and SVG libraries. In particular, SVG has become the default language for charts on the web, and improving text handling would be a boon there.

Do you see a path forward on this one, @tabatkins?
