Re: path data bug to be fixed in 2.0?

My parser just draws the 'c' because spec says:

Values of the 'd' <http://www.w3.org/TR/SVGTiny12/paths.html#DAttribute> 
that do not match the EBNF are treated as unsupported 
<http://www.w3.org/TR/SVGTiny12/intro.html#TermUnsupportedValue>.
=> My interpretation: Don't render the element at all but log a warning.
