Heh... One idea might be to write a gdk renderer using OpenGL. All of GNOME
would benefit, if that indeed brings a benefit.
Maybe a port of gtk to Berlin would be a good idea, while we're at it !

shoot -- I had promised to apply it, but didn't manage to find the time.
The second tarball (with the GPL fix) which has been posted is of
adequate quality (don't forget the NEWS and ChangeLog. It would probably 
be good if you had time to make this a configure option, but it won't
hurt much if it's built by default and crashes sometime (which I
doubt)).
