When implementing a new video driver for Haiku, is implementing the accelerated drawing functions and the hardware cursor functions in the video driver worth the effort. I ask this because the appserver has not used the accelerated drawing function for about a year and a half, and AFAIK the hardware cursor functions have never been used.

+1 for the acceletrated drawing, but Ithink there are compatibility problems left in some drivers. As for the cursor, the hardware one is monochromatic (black, white, transparent, inverted color are the only one available) on most cards, so it's quite a problem with the new cursors..
