Getting the lenght of a path in 1.2 tiny

Hi all,

 

Is there any way to get the length of a path in SVG 1.2 tiny ?

The new interface SVGPath let you get mist parameters of the path but
NOT the length (which will be computed by the UA anyways for other
operations). [1]

 

It was possible in 1.1 to get it using the Interface SVGPathElement and
the function getTotalLength() for instance.

 

Any reason why this is gone in 1.2 tiny ?

 

Julien
