    A test of textures.js that shows one approach for having independent scales for color and texture.
This ended up being more code than expected, because each (color, texture) combination needs to be defined independently. This is because each texture ends up as an SVG def, whose color properties (fill, stroke) cannot be changed per mark. Each (color, texture) pair must exist globally, then be applied to each mark.
