Ahh, ok. Makes sense. On the other hand, it would be really handy if you
could somehow indicate what was done, so that if a later renderer had access
to the original bitmap they could skip the quad-ized version, and just
render the bitmap as a texture. This would of course be done with a new
comment directive. Any chance of this? Drawing the bitmap as a texture
would generally produce both higher quality AND faster rendering.
