Supporting textBaseline about canvas2svg HOT 4 CLOSED

Since dominant-baseline is in the SVG 1.1 spec, I would say go ahead with mapping the values rather than adding in a hack for IE9.

Just checked again and found http://bl.ocks.org/eweitnauer/7325338
dominant-baseline looks broken in chrome, firefox looks useable (not 100% perfect).
It's not only IE9, newest IE can't render it too.

I could use https://github.com/Pomax/Font.js but I think it's overkill.

But yeah I would prefer dominant-baseline.

Yup, IE looks about like the image below. To be fair though, chrome, FF and safari are returning differing results on the lesser used values (the SVG spec is huge), but since alphabetical, hanging and middle are somewhat reasonable I think it's ok to go ahead and map the values. I would rather keep a simple mapping with valid SVG, instead of forcing text position encoding into the output. (The other SVG viewers should in theory implement it properly in the future).

Chrome in windows is correct (text-before is incorrect)
Chrome Windows;

I wonder why it looks wrong on my linux-maschine. Must be a bug in Chromium.
Chrome Linux:

OH ! Linux looks correct with 100% zoom..
4k Display here default 125% zoom.
The dashed border show the position I had originally (before scaling down to 100%)

So yeah I will implement the dominant-baseline-version !
