You are quite right, I missed this one also covers blend functionality
(and also covers snorm formats).
It does not however test the really interesting blend combinations,
because it only really tests one/zero blend factors. The really
interesting ones are those with inverse blend factors.
And it looks quite complex to change too (this test actually just draws
one rectangle and relies on the clear color for the dst values).
