Yes, because not specifying max_gradient always used to have some hard to
predict consequences (also users never noticed) going back as far as the
original isosurface code.  It would basically behave different depending on
max_gradient being specified or not, even if the specified max_gradient was
the same as the default.  You probably never noticed, but if max_gradient is
set (this goes for the original code as well), the values you specify after
eval(uate) did not change anything.

This has been corrected and it now works the same all the time except for
the above problem in beta 7.  However, I am still trying to determine other
side effects of the final change (not in beta 7).
