I assume you mean the ability to have a paragraph of text that, for
example, is yellow on the left side and gradually transitions to red
text on the right side?
If so, then yes, this is something we'll address at some point, so
that you can "fill" text with an arbitrary image (such as a gradient)
instead of just a color. Webkit already exposes a proprietary method
for this ("background-clip:-webkit-text", iirc), though that is likely
not the exact solution we'll eventually go with.
