Replying from phone, sorry if short. Extrapolated would rock imho. The segment limit the lpe uses is quite frustrating though when getting creative, otherwise it's really awesome.
We just discussed this at the SVG Working Face-to-face meeting (I called in). There is support for adding the extrapolated version to the spec. Two small hiccups... one, a couple people asked for the exact mathematical formula to use to find the curvature of the last point (could you supply this?), and two, current rendering libraries that browsers use don't support this so it would have to be added (or simulated via a fill). A miter limit would have to be included to prevent the join from getting too long.
