All good reasons, what is the difference between a pbuffer and a texture? Part
of the TOT project (of which pixelTANGO is a component) is corrective
projection. Basically you calculate a 3D mesh to un-distort the image projected
onto an irrefular surface. If we could render the window to a texture then we
could apply this correction to the entire render window rather than only to the
textures on objects.
