Research direction
Review the ClosePath behavior described in the v1 specification and compare it with how existing vector tiles encode ClosePath. The issue is framed as an open discussion, so a clear resolution about whether the cursor should move is needed before implementation or specification work can be considered done.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
I am creating this issue for open discussion and a note for future releases. Currently the ClosePath command does not move the cursor. This was not described in v1 and most existing vector tiles are currently encoded in such a way that ClosePath does not move the cursor. From a logical standpoint, it might make sense to have ClosePath move the cursor to the initial point of that linear ring.
