That much I understood. The question remains: why an extension ? Why not a simple
new library (or whatever) sitting on top of GGI ?

if each window uses its own visual, you still need something outside the realm of ggi
to display these visuals in (and to deal with overlapping visuals, i.e. a region
manager
for visuals). From the point of view of berlin, the GGIVisual is the world.
There is no notion of 'outside'.
