Dirk, given the fact that you quite logically referred to this as “the canvas Path object” when mentioning it to us, and the fact that both CanvasGradient and CanvasPattern objects exist, CanvasPath sure does seem like a nice name for this. Someone should make that suggestion on the WebApps mailing list!
