while updating to a new version of allegro (i now have wip35, woohoo!),
i had to upgrade code dealing with fonts to the new font system, and i
found that some things (like a glyph output function for instance) would
be a good addition to the vtable. it would also be nice to be able to tell
whether a font is color or not (without having to use a hackish method).
my two cents...
