Since [1] the gradient text image was reset within each font or span
block (e.g. for applying bold style).
The change was done because Chrome does not inherit the involved styles
when a transform is used, which is the case in animated texts.
After this commit the inherit style is only applied on animated texts.
This lets the gradient span across style changes.
Note that there is no solution yet for animated texts: they still have
a restarted gradient.
Steps to reproduce:
- Drop a Title block in a website page.
- Add a few words.
- Select the whole title's text.
- Make its text color a gradient. (Not the background color)
- Select the second word (avoid picking the word in the middle to
easily see the visual impact).
- Make that word bold.
=> The gradient restarts within the bold word instead of continuing
across the whole text - even though no text animation is used.
