Right, current webkit gradients and spec gradients do *not* cover the
same set of possibilities.  There are gradients in each that you can't
specify in the other.

I don't think that's a problem, though.  Current webkit gradients will
presumably disappear when webkit obsoletes them after implementing
spec gradients (which should happen after I clear up the issues that
are making smfr unhappy).
