Indexed draws will be tricky, it depends on how decent the app-provided index 
ranges are. It also means we'd have to track which parts of the VB are 
uploaded and which aren't.

Mapping the VBO in drawStridedSlow might be an option, although I guess that 
would force the driver to wait until previous draws are done.

All those options are out of reach for Wine 1.4, and beyond Wine 1.4 I'd 
prefer to fix the problems that force us into drawStridedSlow by implementing 
a vertex pipeline and proper instancing.
