Color in SVG includes an alpha channel. I've been told that rendering of Coons patch meshes is ambiguous when this is the case. Does this also affect Tensor-product patch meshes?
I'm curious about the ambiguity. Do you recall why that was said? I'm sure it's more technical, but if it works how I imagine it could, it could afford great artistic leverage.
IIRC extreme bends in the control beziers can cause the fill to self overlap. Transparent or semi-transparent colors would allow the deeper parts of the fill to bleed through. And once again, remember that I don't know what I'm talking about. :-)
