Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-shapes-1] ellipse() grammar gratuitously inconsistent with radial-gradient() (#824)

> If we allowed two keywords and both *-side and *-corner, then we'd have to define what it means when both keywords were *-corner. It's not immediately obvious to me what the resulting ellipse should be in those cases.

Oh, that's a good point. And may have been the reason the radial-gradient syntax only allows one keyword.

So the natural superset of the two syntaxes is one or two "side" keywords or lengths, _or_ one "corner" keyword. Which is rather more confusing.
