You could say the exact same thing of pixmaps.  After all, an
implementation systematically answering BadAlloc to XCreatePixmap
would be perfectly compliant.  And there would be people here to say
"you shouldn't be using pixmaps anyway, you should use textures,
*duh*".

Dropping support for automatic backing store while at the same pushing
for a design, composite, that is all backing store all the time means
one of three things : lazyness, incompetence, or a big honking design
issue in the server.  So, which one is it?

  OG.
