This is already supported by r600g and radeonsi.
Alex suggested this could be useful for video acceleration state trackers.

Do they also need to be planar (same z for each vertex)?
Also, the implicit bypass clip / screen coordinate specification makes
them quite an outlier among all the primitives. Hmm...

Yes, these restrictions would impose a lot of special casing if e.g., softpipe/llvmpipe wanted to support these. And rects are particularly interesting for software rasterizers, as they can be rasterized much more efficiently.

Does r600g/radeonsi's hardware support for rect impose these restrictions? Or could rect be made work more like other primitives?
