Stroke as Clipping Mask

Please add clipping option if the path only has a stroke, no fill.

I wanted to animate text (outlined in Illustrator) to reveal with a curved stroke line via trim path, and found out that clipping only applies to the 'fill' part of the path.

It's very hard to use curved shape to mask it instead of a stroke for this case.

Hope the team will consider this feature, thank you!

+1 ! This would be amazing. I have a dashed stroke and I'd like to use it as a clipping mask for another shape layer. I'd like the layer to be only visible where the dashed stroke is.

Ran into this issue where I wanted to use a stroke as the clipping mask but the whole thing disappears
