Hmm, do you think it's worth spending more time on fbdev?
The point would be to speed it up, right? Avoid the blitting.
My hope is that when I'm done with DRM client, David Herrmann will pick
up and finish his DRM/KMS console. At that point fbdev is only needed
for legacy userspace.
I suck at estimating how long it takes to do stuff, but I really hope
I'm done with DRM client by the end of this year.
