Gradients no longer have this requirement, for what it's worth, due to
unrelated simplifications to the syntax of both types of gradients.

That said, I'm still definitely on the side that unitless zeros should
always mean a length, and that all other units must be explicitly
written even on 0.  As already stated, the 'animation' shorthand
requires a unit on zero times to avoid ambiguity, and some properties
like 'height' require a unit on zero percentages as they have a
different behavior in some circumstances from zero lengths.
