  That sounds pointless. 
  There's less of a difference between EGL streams and GBM than there is between GBM and QPainter. 
  It would create a huge architectural problem given we create a platform before the scene so you'd at best have to duplicate the qpainter side.

  In terms of this patch, I think it's pretty much good to go without any changes - and if there are any, I think that can be our responsibility rather than making the nvidia guy do it after they've done the brunt research work.
