Created attachment 133384 [details] Test case When an SVG text string is rotated the alignment of the characters is very poor. It seems that some rounding is occurring way too soon in the layout or rendering process.

Here is an additional example that how this is a "problem" when animating rotated text as the letters jitter around: http://docs.sencha.com/ext-js/4-0/extjs-build/examples/draw/Rotate%20Text.html (This uses Ext.draw which in turn uses SVG to render the graphics. Using the slider above the text you can rotate the rightmost text dynamically and observe the jittering letters) Note: In Firefox, IE9 and Safari (Windows) this looks perfect and the letters are always nicely aligned .

Safari, Chrome, and Firefox all agree on rendering for this test case. I don't believe there is any remaining compatibility issue.
