In case there's anyone out there who cares, something I would really like in
X is an overlay function of the sort

	pixel_out = (pixel_1 == 0? pixel_2:pixel_1);

There are many functions for combining pixels, but most of them don't seem
to be too useful.  Right now I do this in the client, but for large sets of
pixels this is a pain.  Please use e-mail for comments; I don't have time to
read news anymore.  Too busy trying to get decent overlaying :-).
