I don't have the time to do a testround again, but I can give pointers for whoever has time to have a look:

The patch is https://git.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-desktop/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/commit/?id=ddc4f511abd64d69c1150a41475d0a1ebac01dbb, in particular:
systemBackground = new Meta.Background({ meta_display: global.display });
[res, topColor] = Clutter.Color.from_string('#6D2169');
[res, bottomColor] = Clutter.Color.from_string('#370026');
systemBackground.set_gradient(GDesktopEnums.BackgroundShading.VERTICAL, topColor, bottomColor);

This is hardcoded in the Shell code (I made it conditional by session type). This was made to match what is in the Yaru.css file:

#lockDialogGroup {
  background: none;
  background-color: none;
  background-gradient-direction: vertical;
  background-gradient-start: #6D2169;
  background-gradient-end: #370026; }

As I don't have bionic/cosmic eyes as yours, for me, for the short while this screen appeared, ti seemed the same gradient, with the same VERTICAL transition.
