(1) Specify that the stroke-width is centered on the path, rather than inside or outside the shape. (2) Correct(?) the stroke-width of a dash.

(A) It is expected that the location of the stroke's own paint will be controllable in the next SVG edition, but the default/initial position will still need to be defined.

(B) The algorithm for painting a dash collects all points on a line perpendicular to the path that are within a distance of stroke-width. Because the path has two sides, this effectively doubles the stroke-width. Either that should be corrected (as I proposed here) or it should be made explicit that dashes are double-thick.

I consider this an editorial clarification, which I think is classified as non-substantive. It isn't clear whether I can (or even should be able to) make that classification.

Alternatively, I'm probably willing to sign the appropriate waivers, though I didn't see a link to what they are. (Apologies if they are visible to someone less oblivious and/or not using a high-contrast viewer.)
