I quickly browsed glx spec and failed to spot where this topic appear.
And what does B binds mean in this context, i am thinking to this use:
A & B share obj
A map
B map
A do some drawing
A unmap
A submit draw cmd which change obj
B want to draw at mapped obj

Here does B should the old content of obj before A modified it or
should it map to the actual object (even if there is a drawing going on)
Note that i explicitly didn't include anysynchronization btw A & B
where i believe this 2 applications should sync together.

Cheers,
Jerome Glisse
