I just looked through the last two months of the Cairo Mailing list. I found it encouraging that even though we don't have any Inkscape advocates working explicitly on perfecting Cairo's PDF output, they continue to move along and make advances. When we get around to fixing the gradient rasterization issue, I think it will feel really nice to a continuous (no matter how gradual) stream of PDF enhancements for free.
Just a little extra encouragement, if anyone has the desire to look into this.
As far as I know Miklós' patches are still waiting for some polish work:

Are the patches effective enough to commit and keep fixing? Now would be the time to make the change and get it all hooooked up ;)
