Re: [svg2] radialGradient @fr constraints

Glad you like it. And yes, you are indeed correct that if the focus goes
outside the circle, that the gradient then no longer fills the entire
plane (I think it's in there somewhere btw.). Would you consider this a
problem? (I'm not sure what else one would expect.)
