I think we need a demo that uses A5 functionality natively, and not 
another one done via the A4 shim. I don't think the "market" A5 is 
exclusively aiming for is A4 porters, so the exercise of making a demo 
while maintaining A4 API might be lost on Allegro newbies. A5steroids 
isn't that great either, since it was coded before many of the newer 
features were implemented...
