I'm not so good at grandiose, but if somebody wants to take a shot feel free. ;)

That wouldn't really be a change, that's what we have already. I was more
thinking about a more integrated system than the mix of autoconf, make and
shell
scripts that we have right now.

One thing I can think of is something you've mentioned before but I haven't
really considered, and that is moving to a fully shaderized system. Separate
