I think there are two interesting questions here:
1. What is a number? A magnitude, an ordinal value (obeying the transitive
property), a rotational value (like day of year, degrees, day of week), an
interval value, a nominal labeling (take the SS Stevens taxonomy and add
rotational [1])?

Hi Rik,
Just affirming what you've said in SVG:

While on the topic, it seems like reflected linear gradients would be quite
handy -- insert an edge into the stop-sequence and then reflect or repeat
from there.

It seems to me that the primary use of rounded rectangles is for UI's rather
