Either I have to keep the original object black (unset property). This works in most cases, as the shadow indeed needs to be black. But I'm unsure if it's safe to depend on 'unset' looking black in other renderers.

It is safe. Unset fill must be black per SVG specification.

Or, you can use off-the-canvas original text with unset fill and two its clones on the canvas, one for the text and the other for the shadow.
