+* We implemented GFX transactions & commits some time ago -- but they are only
+ half the story. We are still missing a rollback system -- that is, check
+ whether the requested video mode works, if it doesn't, revert to the current
+ settings -- at least "if it makes sense". That is, if the transaction
+ only modified the scaler or aspect ratio, we can safely revert. Of course
+ if the screen size changed (e.g. from 320x200 -> 640x480) we can't just
+ revert to the old screen size -- unless we augment the API accordingly,
+ and update all engines to deal with this possibility.
