| NPAPI Async Drawing Extension
| Bas
| With the release of IE9 and Flash 10.2 IE has created an easier method for windowless plugin drawing. For performance and other reasons (such as the current elaborate background copying/alpha recovery scheme) a more efficient drawing model for windowless plugins is required.

| In order to diagnose text rasterization issues some people are experiencing we want to expose some additional rasterization options through about:config to allow users to evaluate their text rendering.
| Azure requires a cairo backend so we can start experimenting with a Thebes wrapper around Azure, using Azure for gecko drawing.
