Not for the moment in a single property as shown. But I agree with you
it could be very useful and remove a lot of ugly calls to a background
image. I've already proposed the CSS+FP WG chair to discuss this topic
for CSS 3.
It could use a new functional notation for colors gradient() having
your three arguments : two colors and an angle. For instance :
background-color : gradient(<color>, <color>, <angle>)
I am quite sure that background gradient colors can be handled by
browsers (well, even PowerPoint can do it !-) but I wonder if
foreground colors of this kind are not too complex or too dangerous
for performances to implement...
