Plus, what reason would you have in the first place to specify the exact
pixel format? Something like 32-bit or 16-bit makes sense (at least, if
you allow users to configure this) - but requesting BGR or RGB ordering
just asks for your program to fail on some drivers which can only do
one, or can only accelerate one.
