  I was speaking about features which can't be achieved by other means.
hf_height_at and text alignments are quite easily achieved by other means
(and aren't there macros in 3.5 for that?).
  Post-processing is certainly something which can't be achieved by other
means than the patch, and thus I would be quite surprised if it would be
dropped out. (If it is, many people will certainly complain loudly.)
  Motion blur is another example.
