RevealJS gradient background

Description

Add support for RevealJS gradient backgrounds: https://revealjs.com/backgrounds/#gradient-backgrounds.

I tried the following, but it doesn't seem to work:

# Demo {data-background-gradient="linear-gradient(45deg, blue, red)"}

(Tried background-gradient as well)

FYI: This is from Reveal.js 4.4.0

Current pre-release version embedded in Quarto is 4.3.1.
Dependencies are updated once per version/release, so support for that will likely arrive in Quarto 1.5.

Thanks @mcanouil!

Any chance it would get upgraded to the latest version?

As @mcanouil answered,

support for that will likely arrive in Quarto 1.5.

As I said, dependencies are updated once per Quarto release.
There was already an update.

A dependency update can break features, thus there is work to be done for each update and currently there are more important work ongoing to take the risk of breaking things.

The question rather referred to the version you upgrade to, not when it happens. As of today the latest version is 4.6.0, 4.4.0 is almost a year old now.

It will likely be upgraded to the latest stable version available at the time it will happen.

Quarto 1.6 pre-release has an update Revealjs, and so background gradient is available
