Geert,
  Does this imply that in the newer version there is no high level
drawing functions that are touching my mmio and memory pointers. It
is all contained inside the driver? I certainly hope so.
  To add to the point these pointers should not even be visible to
the outside-of-driver world. It someone can see a virtual pointer,
at some point they will try to use it. In some drivers this would
cause bad things to happen.

  So what am I to do in the mean time? Is there a way to keep people
from using the pointers?
