I could see the gradient being possibly useful if we ever add arbitrary
shaped clip objects (clip to alpha of image maybe?). Right now I just
use plain old images for all my gradient needs. I'm curious though, is
there any performance benefit to using a gradient object over an image
of a gradient?

Also, if someone takes the time to add some AA routines for lines and
polys would you be opposed to adding line/poly edje objects?
