Add new basic element for stars and regular polygons
- State:
- RAISED
- Product:
- SVG 2

- Description:
- For simplifying hand- and script-authoring, we should add a new element to allow the creation of stars, regular polygons, spirals, and other shapes. Dr. Olaf suggests the <polar> element, and has a sophisticated proposal for how it would work. This would allow for very mathematical (and visually appealing) shape representation.
My early proposal:
