I'm not so sure that openGL windows behave the same way as GDI. Even
native has lots of visual glitches with that. Some one said they act
like an overlays - which might be true. In either case, what would stop
us from at least considering this as a valid option limited to openGL
only?
Another BTW I have not seen a single test in user32 that involves openGL.
