Dear Alan:
	Do you mean we can use damage extension to draw the update screen, so the draw speed can up a litter.
	But the rotation action still use xrandr's software rotation method, is it right?

It is possible to support HW accelerated rotation.

You can use the damage extension to get rectangular regions to do
rotated blits.

You can look at the Intel driver to see how this is done for an example.
