Okay, so "UNDEFINED" is actually the "I don't care" option when requesting?
Also, I don't find that constructor taking "true, true" - only one taking two
ImageCapabilities

You didn't answer the above.. Care to? (It would go into the pool of "nice to
know - maybe it will be immensely useful at some point")

Please do! And make things explicit. Make the BufferStrategy in Swing explicit.
Basically, make Swing be an actual disjoint layer above AWT/Java2D, utilizing
ONLY the public, userfacing APIs of AWT/Java2D to work (I don't really know how
far from that it is at this point - but I still feel there are some magic
involved..)
