Sorry if I have not been following the gradient discussion, but I fail to understand why repeating gradients does not have "a strong use case". The designer is responsible for any background image to line up (or not line up, if that's the deliberate decision), but repeating gradients feel quite intuitive to me. -- cheers, -ambrose
