Steps to reproduce

Per the SVG 2 spec, this allows us to use the same marker for the start and end.

Otherwise, we need to create two almost identical markers, one for the start and the other for the end of our path. This bloats the SVG and makes it less maintainable.

Simple test using orient='auto-start-reverse' (works in Chrome and Firefox): https://codepen.io/AmeliaBR/pen/qjXoQd

Actual result in Edge: doesn’t even degrade nicely, falls back to what it would look like without the orient attribute.

      By the way, orient="auto-start-reverse" also works in WebKit/Safari.

      FYI, I’ve added a JS test for support to the pen (linked above), but it’s not ideal. Unfortunately, the SVG DOM interfaces weren’t updated with the new value in SVG 2, so what you’re actually testing is whether the auto-start-reverse value in the attribute successfully switched the DOM value to SVG_MARKER_ORIENT_UNKNOWN.

      Hey Ana, thanks for filing the issue - feature requests are done on our UserVoice page - here is the one for SVG 2. We have a deliverable for this so I have duped it to that.
