I'd rather not introduce new features in the patch release unless you feel strongly. I'll merge the Windows clear to black fix though.

I've got a couple other changes I'd like to attempt before you release the patch: clear to black initially on OS X and center the window in accordance with the top bar and dock (right now I think it ignores one or both.) I'm going to look at that and joystick now.

If it's easy to do, it would be beneficial to make the left stick #0 in the alternate mapping. I don't know the specifics of the driver or changes though.

Looks like I'll probably have to make a patch release to 5.2.1.

- 5.2.1 broke the ABI of al_get_opengl_extension_list (fixed in
https://github.com/liballeg/allegro5/commit/5ec135051693664aa8168bfdabb9e8882d6dbefc).
That API doesn't seem like it can handle any OpenGL extension additions,
so we might have to just freeze it as it is. This was detected by the
nice website made by Andrey
(http://abi-laboratory.pro/tracker/timeline/allegro/).

- The change in joystick button enumeration under OSX through
https://github.com/liballeg/allegro5/pull/625 while overall beneficial,
was also non-backwards compatible. I think the probable best solution
here would be to add a allegro5.cfg switch between the old and new
enumerations if feasible, defaulting to the old style and adding
documentation of how to switch to the new style.
