It's at least correct rendering wise (the last one obviously wasn't).
I was curious about how difficult the implementation would be. I
wanted to put the issue on the table. The hw "fix" is out my reach,
but if anyone wants to give it a shot then be my guest. These patches
are also serve the bridge the gap between now and the moment exa wfb
support becomes reasonable widespread, regardless of hw issues.
