It seems like you haven't considered exposing the new features solely through the extension by using the same technique as GLX, which lists multiple core visuals and then having an extension which takes those visuals and describes their extended attributes. This would ensure full compatibility with existing applications (including compositors and screen capture applications). The implementation costs are slightly higher, with the requirement that you provide transformation between extended and core visual pixel formats. -- -keith
