I wasn't ranting, and I wasn't having a hissy fit. SiegeLord originally said he could be swayed to include them. Since I find them useful that is at least one person who would benefit from it. Why do we want Allegro to be more complicated to use than it should be? There's nothing wrong with convenience functions, especially when they make things <i>convenient</i>. Maybe you consider it bloat, but I would consider it useful. These functions would have been useful in texturing objects in an OpenGL demo. Just because you wouldn't use them doesn't mean nobody would.
