(iPad wasn't a platform choice, so I wonder if I'm filing this at the wrong
place. Should this be in Radar? Anyway, here goes!)

SUMMARY:
We are using WebKit's "-webkit-gradient" and "-webkit-background-clip: text"
features to apply a gradient to text.

EXPECTED:
We figured this text would appear the same on Desktop Safari and iPad Safari,
with a colored gradient.

ACTUAL:
The text renders in pure black on iPad Safari — but works fine on all other
WebKit platforms.

MISC:
See the included URL to reproduce the problem.
