Well, I don't know how high a priority it is (but I, too, _hope_ it's a high
one), but Apple is working on a QuickDraw replacement, which -- from all I've
heard -- will be device-independent.  Basically that's supposed to be the
reason they didn't go with Display PostScript.  It's supposedly called "NuGraf"
or something like that.

I hope to see it soon. :->
