Yes, I just thought it would be much cleaner to allow them directly on a
textPath. After all, the initial suggestion for the text element, also
didn't have dx,dy,rotate and allowed only one value for x,y. But you then
decided to make it support the same as tspan. I think the reasoning back
then also holds for textPath.

So why are you putting transform on tspan? tspan is also a child of text...

It's not that I have very strong feelings about this suggestion, I just
thought it would be more logical that way :)
