Rather than PAD being the default, I think NONE should be changed to  
the equivalent of:

  - intersecting the current clip with a quadrilateral that is equal  
to the bounds of the source surface transformed to the destination
  - draw the image using PAD REPEAT
  - restore the clip to as before.

The result is the black edges of the image are sharp antialiased lines  
no matter what the transform.

This is in fact what users expect, and also what other graphics  
libraries are doing (which explains why the hardware is supporting PAD  
directly).
