Linear, radial and meshes-based methods are too primitive. Visit 
http://www.smartfills  and download SVSViewer.zip. This prog 
contents some image files. These files has been created with my 
converter, what converts raster images to something like SVG files. 
Actually, theses files with SVS extension content set of records, 
what could be included into SVG too (this is why I name my vectors 
SVS- something as close to SVG as possible). Currently I'm trying to 
enhance conversion algorithm and structure of SVS files too: I see, 
that there are some things, what could be done better. But, even 
current state of advanced gradients fill shows enough clear, how 
flexible and impressive SVG graphic could be.  
P.S. If someone wants to play with my converter a little, let me know

Yes, I wondered if you had seen the things about "diffusion curves" introduced 
at this year's SIGGraph.
http://artis.imag.fr/Publications/2008/OBWBTS08/diffusion_curves.pdf . It was 
presented by some folks from INRIA, Grenoble U, U of Washington and  Adobe. 
They seem to be talking about much the same thing as what you have been talking 
about and have similar observations about the limitations of more "primitive" 
gradients. It starts with a cubic bezier and then allows color gradients on 
either side, together with a set of blur control points that control the 
transitions between the two halves. They also have come up with a way of 
computing all this in a practical way, that looks very promising. A brief demo 
can be seen at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lEVe7vU5WiU . 

The work certainly reminded me of what you've been working with for some years 
now, though it may in fact be a quite distinct approach.

David
