Re: [svgwg] Does the entire path need to be valid in order to use a path attribute on a textPath (#393)

Although we reached a resolution on this issue during the last meeting, I've noticed a few spec details that are causing some confusion about the correct behavior in this case.

Here are the relevant spec links:
https://www.w3.org/TR/SVG2/text.html#TextPathElement:~:text=If%20the%20%E2%80%98path%E2%80%99%20attribute%20contains%20an%20error
and
https://svgwg.org/svg2-draft/paths.html#PathDataErrorHandling

I think there are more issues, and it would be helpful to discuss them again before finalizing the WPTs.
