For instance karbon may have one slightly different standard gradient, though I think it can perhaps be emulated by the rectangular gradient above. I am also bringing up mesh gradients. From what I know there is not simply one color vector but a grid, not necesarily ordered. I am wondering if this falls outside the scope of OO format? (Illustrator and pdf have it, svg doesnt have it) [point 2 and 3 snipped] I must admit its quite abstract for me :) Can you give an example?
