Actually, my plan is to create a new extension that tracks damage "regions" on drawables; sends events when damage occurs and clients can fetch the affected region. Obviously useful for screen relay apps, but there are other uses as well. The key is to make the server track the area affected, including inferior windows. > Also while we are at it, here is another idea - allow text to be texturized. The Render extension already allows this, and Xft exposes it via the XftRenderString[8,16,32,utf8] routines. This handles repeating/ non-repeating textures with arbitrary offsets relative to the text itself.
