Just like Abiword's document format doesn't cover all of HTML, but it is itself perfectly parseable as HTML, I don't think this editor has to.

That's true, but they're explicitly suggesting SVG path syntax which is very simple. The downside is it's also very limited, and might well prove too limited for the author going forward.

interesting. I didn't know that. I tried googling to find out what parts are not implemented but couldn't find anything (admittedly not a long search).

Do you have more information you can point me to?

I found bugs in the position of text along a path using baseline etc. I need to dig up the code to find it.
