Well for d3d8, our goal is to be independent from GL headers, having all we 
need on d3dcore_gl.h header. In future i'll move all gl backend into wined3d 
(second point from lionel proposals)
For the third point, i agree it should be more clean but currently we only use 
a little subset of openGL APIs.
