Comment (by axeld):
I can't follow PulkoMandy's argument at all, though. Why would that be a
nightmare? It really makes no difference at all.
Anyway, the API is not really sufficient either way, as some things (like
cloning) should be done in the driver, not the app_server. Furthermore,
there are screen configurations, where the app_server would benefit
(albeit slightly) from a contiguous framebuffer when it actually spans
this way over the monitors (I'm not sure this is worth taking into
account, though -- it might make a difference with 3D acceleration,
though).
