Hi Tobias,

I've been working on downscaling mosaiced images without (or with fewer) 
artifacts (https://redmine.darktable.org/issues/11167). Right now there's 
workable code for Bayer and X-Trans in git master. The main flaw is that 
highlights have magenta edges.

It would be great if before 2.4.0 I could code a slightly improved box filter 
and write SSE variants. (The Bayer SSE code is currently disabled, and there 
never was X-Trans SSE code.) I don't know if this will entirely fix 
https://redmine.darktable.org/issues/11340 (negative values for demosaic), and 
alas don't think it will fix the magenta edges to highlights.

I will be able to get to this again in early July. Is that soon enough to make 
its way into 2.4.0? Additional improvement would be slightly better quality 
zoomed-in rendering in darkroom view, and faster initial rendering of the 
preview when loading a new image.

I've also been working on Wayland support 
(https://redmine.darktable.org/issues/11535). This is mostly done, but isn't 
worth enabling until GTK+ >= 3.22.16 makes its way into distributions. Wayland 
support doesn't seem to me to be critical for 2.4.0.
