I would not agree with you in saying they are nota requirement. Most interesting
programs
at launch time search for available visuals, require overlays, and won't even
launch without
overlay visuals found. I would say overlay support is a central feature of any
graphic visualization
subsystem and is what makes a difference between a children's toy and a
workstation.
