Yes, but I've seen Nvidia remove extensions before. If ARB_vertex_blend makes no
sense for the current cards, they can remove it completely. Obviously what is
going on the Mac platform is critical. How can we be sure that Mac OS X uses the
extension in the GUI?

Can someone check to see if WoW actually calls glWeight or glWeightPointerARB?
Maybe someone could check what would happen if ARB_vertex_blend or
EXT_vertex_weighting is disabled too. Also, can someone spoof the OpenGL
versions strings to make WoW think there is an Nvidia card?
