As I wrote in another post:
Requesting auxiliary buffers (offscreen pixmapstorage, z-buffers,
sprite buffers or whatever) should be in an (or more than one probably,
given the number of different buffertypes) extension, and these
extensions would naturally have functions to do every possible
operation on these buffers, such as blitting them to the screen.
