I hope Sun fixes that up quickly.  This proposal looks excellent now.

The only suggestion I have is it might be nice to have a table
illustrating the primitives each backend can accelerate.
e.g.
                           | GL | D3D | XRender | X11
------------------------------------------------------------
Anti-aliasing       | Y   |  Y     |  Y            |
Translucent Img | Y   |  Y     |  Y            |

I'm not sure if thats feasible for all the things XRender can
acclerate, but it gives a visual indicator of how equivalent to GL/D3D
Xrender can be.
