Sure.
The point is that if you can't use normalized coordinates at all on
PIPE_TEXTURE_RECT, you can't implement OpenCL well on nv50 and r600.
Hence, that should be allowed on OpenCL capable cards (and not on others).

On nVidia cards, this doesn't matter, since they never prefer the
normalization opposite to the OpenGL-required one.
So if the maintainers of Radeon and software renderers, who might
care, don't, I suppose we could as well not introduce the feature,
even though I'm not totally convinced of this.
