Radial gradient used as a Stroke

[Jim Graham]

For A.setClip(B), any pixel that B would render to is used as a mask to 
control where A is rendered to.  The colors that B renders are ignored 
completely except for their alpha.  The alpha controls the amount of 
masking it performs, but the color is discarded.

So, the stroke on the circle shouldn't "appear" as a gradient filled 
ring - instead that ring will simply contribute to the area that you can 
see the underlying Rectangle through.

So, if you are assigning a gradient of opaque colors to that circle's 
stroke and then installing the circle as a clip, you might as well just 
set the circle's stroke to an opaque Color instead.

If you want to have a circular clip and you want to render the stroke of 
that circular region, then you'll have to use 2 nodes - one to install 
as a clip, and another one on top of it all to paint the border...
