Not really, I was just pointing out the Spark-thinking.  That would be so
heavy, it really wouldn't be practical, but it sure would be powerful.

No, just thinking out loud.  But if it isn't skinnable and goes in
spark.components then it isn't "consistent".

So if you do that (which is a reasonable thing to do), keep in mind that if
you have a weight property, then it doesn't make sense to have a replaceable
stroke for which the weight property may not apply.

If it were me, I'd probably call it SolidLine instead of Rule and put it in
the graphics package so folks know it isn't skinnable, and not allow
replacing of the stroke.  I think that would hit the 80% case.
