Comment (by waddlesplash):

 Well, in the future, the app_server will probably be compositing instead
 of having a single draw buffer, so having two draw buffers in shared
 memory that are also accessed by the app_server would be how that worked.
 Then offscreen views don't require a connection to anywhere.

 And all bitmap buffers are held by app_server at present, no? So doesn't
 it run into the same memory space problem on 32-bit?

 I suppose most of this stuff can be more easily investigated once
 app_server is already compositing.
