Fitting an artboard to a path with a Freeform Gradient creates invisible border
Fitting an artboard to a path with a Freeform Gradient creates invisible border. It seems to create space around the path when fitting — only seems to be an issue with freeform gradients.

Indeed. Freeform gradient is secretly a live triangular mesh, clipped within a path.
If you expand it, the mesh gets 'baked' and the true bounds become evident. Ai seems to ignore the bounds of the clipping path in this case, sadly... there was a similar bug, now resolved (http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447/suggestions/39669865), but this case slipped through.
Thanks for the report!
