    - allow using the following macros multiple times:
    withcoonspatchinit, withtensorpatchinit, withtrianglepatchinit.

    - fix a bug that blocked shading between spot color and process color:
    only l3color's spot colors are supported for this feature,
    as colorspace.sty allows a new colorspace only in the preamble.

    - utilize l3color's raw export function if available --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
