>> Note that the sequence `on - conic -on' is invalid.

Uh, silly me.  I shouldn't answer emails if I'm too tired...  Of
course this is a valid sequence for conic curves (but not for cubic
ones), and as you've correctly written, the first point of an outline
is implicitly used as the end of a conic curve if the last point is a
conic control point.

I would be glad if you could improve the wording of this (rather old
and effectively unmaintained) document.  Patches are highly welcomed!

Now that you know that this function exist, where would you have
expected a link to it?  Where should it mentioned that it exists?
