Patterns work with stroking. The model is simply that the stroke is
converted into a path, then that path is filled with the pattern.

I have some code for beveling arbitrary paths around that works by
reimplementing a simple stroker then filling each segment individually
with a gradient.

It needs some work, but if I get it cleaned up a bit, I'll post a link
to it here.
