That only works if the angle is a multiple of 45 degrees. Anything else
gives you undesirable results.

 It's not clear to me how the moz repeating radial gradient is rendered. If

I'm not sure why you say that. We render repeating radial gradients the way
SVG does. For the simple case where the inner circle is a point and the
outer circle has the same center and radius R, that means you get color of
the last color stop at at R, 2R, 3R etc.
