I've modified Inkscape to render at a slightly higher quality by avoiding repeated normalizations in libnr/nr-compose.cpp. I've uploaded examples of the results to:

Very interesting...
The first two are the current "about" drawing, exported to bitmap using Inkscape 0.44 (old) and reasonably current SVN+changes to compositing (new). The second two just show the gradient in background of the "about" drawing, which shows the "problem" with current version of Inkscape more clearly (if you have a hard time spotting the difference, look for a dark band in the upper left corner in the old image, it shouldn't be there, and it isn't in the new image).
Nice! This is the banding issue I've been complaining about for a long time. And I can see banding throughout the whole image... ;)
Is this considered as interesting (if so, I'll try to clean up the patch and submit it to the patch tracker for review?), or will this become obsolete very quickly?
No plans to ditch our current renderer yet... so please do submit a patch. You very well may earn the highly coveted best friend of the week status with me. ;)
