Yes, devolution's Gradient tool uses the same technique.

If Lynn's interested in delivering his graphics pack in Rev's native 
format of course that would be ideal.  He could make use of v2.9's new 
graphics options for a wide range of effects with minimal file size and 
zero distortion.

But if he wants to leverage the investment by delivering generic 
graphics which could be used in any app-building tool, we won't be so 
lucky. :)
