Here my plan: fist I think that it will be cool to have alpha rendering
now that we have basic PNG support. I make a few test with the XFree XRender
extension and I think that it is the more easy way to take (and the most
fast too). So, if there is no objection I will see if it is possible
to add new libs stuff "FRenderPicture" to render image/icons all around
fvwm code (partially done with FvwmTheme).
After that if one wish it will be possible to write by hands some
replacement for the magic XRender function.
