Exactly my thoughts. There are a couple of things we have to be
mindful of as we step into the wild 3D
I think most of those effects can be just as easily be done by the 2D
engine (like what the Geode has). Of course it would need a LOT of
coding, like killing the stupid X driver model with the X server
process, using a compositing windows manager, rewriting GTK+ to use some

I honestly can't think of a use-case for including any sort

about a million significantly more important things that people
should be working on before even thinking about 3D (IMHO).
