This is good to know that the overlap case exists.

Yes, it's possible (it's also possible to set it to values below 1x for
someone that have super vision :-). After the first Daniel e-mail I test
it here using 1x and the iverse mode (In Ubuntu 6.10), since composite
doesn't work well in 6.04 due xserver-7.0 used in it, and the result was
good.

Maybe we could invest in a library, the one started by Daniel, that
implement the filters and any solution that need to use them will have
them available. The only thing that must be done to integrate it to
gnome-mag is that it support GDK images.
