Furthermore, the shading variants for linear_shade do not correspond
with those listed in the metafun manual, page 180. Variant 2 is missing
and behaves like variant 3 should.
     

Not so exactly. The today reality is a bit richer than that in the 
Metafun manual. One can choose from 8 directions:

number   direction
1        NE
2        NW
3        SW
4        SE
5        E
6        N
7        W
8        S
other    E
   

All right, thanks. Admittedly, i could have found this by trying more
numbers.
But anyway, transparency is ignored when using shading. Is there any
possibility to achieve a gradient from, i.e., completely transparent to
completely intransparent white?
 

no(t yet), i dunno if pdf supports that -)
