Well, to my mind there is no need for fillstyle type testing in a properly refactored Morphic. There is with what we currently have. (Will post again with a more comprehensive outlook on things).

Yes, it's not and shouldn't be.
As far a morph provides a coordinates of areas to fill, only the
fillstyle can choose how to fill them.
An isXXXFill patterns is really shows that parts of fillstyle behavior
are handled by external entities, which adds complexity and
uncertainty to many places in code.
