Thanks for the response.

When and why would a user use the Vacuum Defs function; what advantage does it have?

What are the drawbacks of going the other approach - doing vacuum defs automatically and only store gradients that are actually used.

I think it's more rare to want the unused gradients stored than not. The way to store gradients if auto-cleanup was to be used is to have a hidden object/layer.
