IMO it's the plug-in's job to push the pixel data to the preview, not the preview's job to request it. Such a framework can be added later as I outlined in the proposal I just sent to the list. The preview widget itself doesn't need to know about the drawable it previews, nor what part of it is previewed. It just displays a buffer the size of the preview and that's it. Perhaps we optionally need an API that allows to keep the buffer outside the preview widget. That would allow the plug-in to render a larger version and implement scrolling by changing the offset into the buffer.
