I know this one is a bit esoteric, but here goes. I think the
glyph-orientation-horizontal
attribute does not quite meet the spec. in Batik. This attribute appears
to require an angle
unit identifier which the spec. doesn't require.

Justification:
1. According to the SVG 1.0 specifications
(http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG/text.html#GlyphOrientation)
    the glyph-orientation-horizontal attribute values are defined as:

    Value:   <angle> | inherit
    Initial:   0deg

2. Referring to the <angle> data type
(http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG/types.html#DataTypeAngle),
    we find the statement:

"For properties defined in [CSS2], an angle unit identifier must be
provided. For SVG-specific
attributes and properties, the angle unit identifier is optional. If not
provided, the angle value is
assumed to be in degrees."

3. Following the link to the CSS2 specification, and looking at the
property index
    (http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-CSS2/propidx.html), I found no reference
to the
    'glyph-orientation-horizontal' attribute.

4. According to the statement in 2 above this should mean that the 'deg'
angle unit specifier is
    not required

However, leaving off the 'deg' generates the following error message.

The attribute "glyph-orientation-horizontal" represenets and invalid CSS
value("90").
Original message:
The "glyph-orientation-horizontal" property does not support integer
values.

See the attached example.

I also don't see any change in the output, no matter what value I choose
for this attribute.

Sorry for the long post. Thanks,
G. Wade
