This scm script-fu only works on Gimp 3.0 rc2 + git after December 21, 2024, because a system has been introduced to call GEGL directly that is not present in 2.10.
So I couldn't resist turning into a script-fu an old tutorial of mine that used Long Shadow, which is not accessible to scm.

Wouldn't it be more practical to work from a Gradient, or at least a palette?

This is just one example... now all GEGLs are accessible this way and the codes that access them "the old way" have been removed.
Accessibility has been gained and simplicity has been lost.
