Two (?) comments:

1. The SVG 1.2 Working Draft has something called "vector effects" (see 
http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/WD-SVG12-20041027/vectoreffects.html )
that might (I hope) make the animation of subpaths of a given path (including 
individual points) animateable through SMIL. Right now we have to animate on 
the entire "d" attribute of a path.

2. Thanks to Frank for making sense out of this (pathSegList and related stuff) 
to me. I had seen it in the spec and always assumed it was for server-side Java 
manipulation or Batik or something. I had always parsed and reassembled paths 
with my own home-grown scripts. 

3. (I have a really hard time limiting myself to two comments) While what Frank 
describes works fine in Opera, Safari and FF, it doesn't seem to work in 
IE/ASV. Haven't had a chance to test in Renesis though.
