Description

Following changes, though standardizes the gradient declarations, introduces gradient-line to misbehave from last implementation as well:

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/attachment.cgi?id=692985&action=diff#a/browser/themes/winstripe/browser.css_sec22

According to current spec, there isn't a way to overcome this in a clean way (& restore the previous behavior). However, the change might not be noticeable to human eyes in many cases, and if applied on a square element, the gradient will theoretically be identical to the previous implementation.
