And an embarrasedly late reply...

This year, I've taken nearly 4 months off (paternity leave + vacation
+ sabbatical) and was in a Vulkan crunch for the 3 months before that.
My schedule has finally returned to normal.

After considering this more, I agree with you. Waffle shouldn't add an
extra layer of validation on top of the GL/GLES/GLX/EGL drivers, except
when the validation is truly helpful.

I agree. Strictly speaking, the presence of libGLFoo does not indicate
the availability of the GLFoo API.

However, patch 7 of your series regresses the gl_basic GLES1 tests. I'm
investigating that now. Maybe the bug is Waffle's, maybe Mesa's; I'm
unsure.

Yes, it does make the code cleaner.

I've submitted the first 6 patches to Intel's CI. I'll merge if there
are no regressions.

I'm holding off on patches 7 and above until I diagnose the regressions.
