NAK. What you are suggesting will completely breaking the entire Cimarron
infrastructure, which is not something I am willing to do at this stage.
Much time (and by that I mean nearly 4 years) went into writing, verifying
and validating this code. We have a bug that needs to be fixed - and that
doesn't happen by completely removing the internal workings of the engine.
Thank you for reporting this, and I'll look into ways we can make
the upload blit behave better.
