Be careful ;-) You start this way and then you will wonder if you cannot
have the compositor ask asynchronously the clients to provide the content
of the window, this way you have smooth resizing of the window outline and
have still the content of the window displayed..


More seriously, I don't see why optimising for "weird display" (transformations
that are not representable by a matrix) should take precedence over
sub-pixel aware rendering..
