I use geo chart a *lot* and want to produce colormaps which are distinctly
non-linear.

An example might be: Ipv6 uptake worldwide varies by 0.01 through 0.5 to 10+

has

var mapOptions =    {
 legend: {
  position: 'none' },
  region:     '053',
  resolution: 'countries',
  width:      620,
  height:     365,
  colorAxis: {
minValue: 0,
                                              maxValue: 10,
                                              colors:   ['#FF0000',
'#FFBB00', '#FAA005', '#FAB905', '#D5FA05', '#FFF700', '#F2FA05',
'#00FF00', '#00FF44', '#00FFAA'] }
    };

Aha you say.. this is just a logarithmic scale.

But it turns out humans have a non-linear color response, and whilst it IS
like a log scale axis, I really just want to fine-tune the distribution in
the colorspace of the X axis using colorAxis controls.

Thing is.. #RRGGBB codes are just .. hard to tune. What I do by hand
inevitably has bands.
