The following document (example1) is a candidate for an acid test perhaps? It has an animated stop (using straight animation, rather than animateColor, on named colors) applied to a mask applied to an <image>. (I'm assuming this is legal by the spec since it works almost every where else, including in feDisplacement which is usually the last thing that a young SVG browser seems to get right)
Status: Opera -- mucks up the lower part of the reflected gradient (I suspect this is a known bug, since I've seen it before in other examples) FF4b -- doesn't animate the stop within the gradient Chrome -- doesn't interpolate across color ranges of values in the gradient Safari -- doesn't reflect the gradient and doesn't interpolate between color values ASV -- seems to be correct, but slow Example 2 shows that Chrome and Safari understand how to interpolate smootlhly between black and white, apparently just not when it involves a gradient stop. Example 2, however points out an apparent bug in FF4b6 which seems reluctant to let the SMIL override the gradient fill declared in the tag.
