  Works OK here (Inkscape 0.92) - `>` is normal editable patch, with gradient recognizable by inkscape.

  I forgot about caching. s/install process/packaging process/ - but I'm not sure cutting 1MB from something downloaded usually every few months is worth it.

  Yakuake/Konsole, 2 types - with full identity, and "generic looking but different than utilities-terminal":
