While I agree completely with you on the fact that sub-bitmaps ought to
be able to do this (it annoyed me a lot when I wrote WHAM,  I even send a patch
back then (I think against allegro 3.0), but there was a reason I cannot
remember for not applying it), I think that if you announce a feature freeze, you
must take that seriously, or else you just go on fixing things forever (and introducing
ne problems along the way).

Phew, that's a long sentence ;-)
