It is gallium nine only for now.

In the case of gallium nine, it as a reasonnable assumption all accesses 
to the rendered content (read/write) is done through the api. Besides 
the window messages are independent of whether there is presentation or 
not (and when). Thus you can delay the presentation.

I believe in the case of GL, it is too much to do these assumptions. 
Though perhaps the option could still be added and user test if for 
their app it works or not. But it's not trivial work to add support for 
the option.
