Anyway, it doesn't really make sense to go off and define an all-new standard because we think some SVG filters might not be acceleratable on some hardware. As Dean pointed out, that will be true for any adequately powerful filter API. We'll simply have to fall back to a software implementation or refuse to apply the filter. But if there are particular aspects of SVG filters that make them difficult to accelerate, let's talk about that. I certainly agree they could use some improvement :-).
