RE: [css3-background] color transition line

If you remove the 3rd sentence from the spec (because it's apparently interpreted multiple ways), I believe the spec (3) agrees with 1.

I strongly disagree with 2 and 4, and I think Simon concurs.

The algorithms are:

1. Pretend the border-radius doesn't exist and draw the line corner to corner.

2. (I'm not 100% sure of this but) measure the arc length and distribute
    by border-width

3. What's in the spec right now.

4. Take the perpendicular of the chosen angle, find the point tangent to it
    on the outer curve, and connect that point shortest distance to the inner
    curve.
