How does one rubberband text without having to BLT to memory and back? I think I might've noticed once that gpr_$rectangle ignores ROP's also. Any insights into why some primitives ignore raster ops? Any reason why they should? I'm at 9.7, so if "it's fixed in sr10", I guess I'll have to live with it.
