I think we're using different meanings here. By 'local clipping', I
mean the clip-setting in a subfile disappears when that subfile is
finished. It is not carried back up to the superfile, and it is not
reinstated if the same subfile is used later in the rendering.

The INVERT case is fairly important.

Because there are that many of them. I'd estimate that 1/4 to 1/2 of
all primitive references need to be inverted.

Why would have file have to check all it's branches? And who said
anything about 'correcting' subfiles?
A file is referenced. It renders with BFC stuff. It references a
subfile. That subfile is not BFC-ready, so it doesn't get BFC'ed. The
subfile exits. The first file continues. It references another
subfile. This subfile is BFC-ready, it benefits from culling.
I don't see how this is some unreasonable amount of extra work to check
a single flag at the beginning of a file.

Great. So some minor file somewhere happens to not be cleaned up, and
you think it's better to disable BFC for the entire rendering?

No, sorry. It's not working. Is mine? :)
