writing-mode SVG 1.1 values

This feature is discouraged — SVG 1.1 writing modes are superseded by CSS writing-mode values.

Consider using writing-mode instead.

For more information, see: css-writing-modes-4/#svg-writing-mode (CSSWG draft)

The lr, lr-tb, rl, rl-tb, tb, and tb-rl keyword values for the writing-mode CSS property set the text direction for elements in SVG 1.1 documents.
