Ah, yes, I had misread the wiki page. So the additional change I'd
request is to have the default be ALLEGRO_CONVERT_BITMAP (i.e. when you
never ever call al_set_new_display_flags in your thread). Then my
concerns would be satisfied.
The behavior of using 0 for flags would not change not the behavior
after the first explicit call to al_set_new_display_flags.

It should be supported. If not we can make it.
