Yeah, that is really nice to have.

One question is if you wait on the CPU or the GPU for the new surface to 
become available? The former is a bit bad for latency and power management.

Another question is if that is sufficient as security for the display 
server or if we need further handling down the road? I mean essentially 
we are moving the reliability problem into the display server.

Christian.
