Enhancement: Pick tool should pick patterns and gradients too

[EmanueleSabetta]

OS: Apple OS X 10.9.4
Inkscape version: v0.48.2

PROBLEM: The Pick tool pick only single colors as fill. It is not possible to pick a "pattern fill" or a "gradient fill" (linear or radial) and copy it to another object. User must go a long way to reproduce the pattern or the gradient manually.

SOLUTION: Pick tool should pick patterns and gradients too. Currently CLICK picks the current pixel color, SHIFT+CLICK picks the stroke color, and ALT+CLICK picks the inverse pixel color.
A new key combination should be added to pick patterns or gradients. For example: ALT+SHIFT+CLICK should pick patterns and gradients.
