It's possible, but not actually that useful I think. So it's not a
high priority for us to implement. Maybe someone will send a
patch. ;-)

Seems to be just adding hardware accel to the linux-fb port, so it
should get merged with the linux-fb target I think. However it isn't
going to happen unless these directfb guys decide to work closely with
Alex and get it in to the GTK distribution... we haven't heard a thing
from them or gotten any source so far.
