I've made a few changes since the SVG WG meeting. The attribute 'stop-path' has been rename 'path' at the WG's request. The code now handles 'stop-opacity'. There are five example SVG files in the share/examples directory (their names all begin with "mesh") including one that shows the effect of setting an opacity of less that 1 on two corners of a patch. The examples can also be seen at:
With the opacity, I would expect that it would show through to the "underlying" part of the mesh beneath the overlaps (such that a z-order would exist within the object)... is it not designed in such a way and is this how PDF's meshes work? Meshes seem like they could be exceptional to create effects like fabric or cellophane or other things which might not be completely opaque, but would have overlaps. Just curious.
