Perhaps I should clarify. Adi and I were curious are thinking ahead. 
Unless I have misjudged the code at this point, depending on how 
quickly he and I can fling code, we could be seeing some quite useful 
milestones in the coming months. We are thinking about potential 
optimizations in the drawing code and such. While I won't speak for 
Adi, I personally was wondering what can be done with these other 
instructions with respect to graphics and whether or not it is worth it 
to even consider writing code to utilize them. I don't know much about 
any of this kind of stuff, and I'm pretty sure Adi doesn't, either, so 
at this point we just wanted to see if there is anyone who is 
knowledgeable in this kind of thing who could answer some questions and 
such.
