Re: Wrapping Text in SVG 2

Hi Doug

Wrapping text using the CSS box model seems like a great idea to me because it means I (and others) only have to become familiar with one model for most text layout tasks. 

I also like the simplicity of the overflow property suggested here http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/WG/wiki/Proposals/Wrapping_Text 
and if I read it correctly, the proposed simplicity of controlling what happens on overflow e.g.
overflow = visible or clipped
though I do think the refinements on this are important i.e. it is important to include values
" to allow the author control over whether clipped text renders in part, in whole, or not at all"

Best wishes

Andrew
