I agree that it is ugly and I think it should be changed. Alternatively, it should be possible to specify that the bounding box region that the gradient applies to is not just the bounding box of the shape geometry, but something that includes the stroke as well; that would result in a bounding box with some area in the case of a stroked horizontal or vertical line. -- Cameron McCormack ≝ http://mcc.id.au/
