Also, I think having to draw to an intermediary alpha surface, and then blit in order to get blending is basically just a useless extra step for the user to have to perform. ...but it's nice to know you can get the desired behavior with the extra steps at least. ...hopefully any future anti-aliased circle addition would just blend in
