linear-gradient mixin can only be used in background-image property

[teohhanhui]

This means I cannot write the following perfectly valid CSS:

background: linear-gradient(...);

or even assign the linear-gradient value to a variable:

my-gradient = linear-gradient(...)

There must be a better way of doing this... I believe if/when we override CSS built-in property/function name, we should always make sure not to break anything (otherwise it cannot be known as "transparent" as what Stylus docs calls it).

Alternatively, if you don't think this is worth fixing (or too hard to fix), or additionally, perhaps provide a way to turn off exporting non-prefixed (non "ks-*") identifiers. I suggest "ks-no-conflict".

Hi, thanks for the report.

The linear-gradient mixin will implement many properties to the current selector. I don't think I can allow it to be stored in a variable. But I will make some tests: if I can allow it, I will.

I like the ks-no-conflict idea, I will implement it soon, maybe at the end of the week.

Hi, the no-conflict mode has been implemented and published as 0.11.6.

I still need some time to test the first issue.

Thanks again for your report.
