Well, I kind of feel the same way about everything really. I'd say
that the role of a gfx lib like evas is to provide a good amount of gfx
flexibility without sacrificing speed or quality, and to do so via a
reasonable api.
In the end though, I think there's really no better way to deal with
gfx stuff than via higher-level ibs/apis that simplify and narrow
things down.. and ultimately, one really needs a good gfx gui-designer.

That would be useful, sure. There's really not much to 'gradients'
themselves really, and I'll try to quickly go over some basic aspects a bit
later, but as far as to how/when/why to use them... that's a bit nore
open-ended and really brings us back to the above remarks about the need
for gui tools and some experience with gfx design - and a bit more from evas
than it can currently use gradients for.
