/**
 * This is a special "window" that actually renders to an offscreen buffer,
 * copies the pixels to RAM, and then ships them to a parent process via
 * shared memory for rendering to the window.
 *
 * This whole nonsense is necessary because OSX doesn't allow child processes
 * to draw to, or attach windows to, windows created in the parent process.
 * There's a rumor that 10.6 fixes this nonsense; this will remain to be seen.
