If you can bear the gross oversimplification, I'd say that basic
CoreAnimation support is not a terribly hard problem. Opal renders to
cairo surfaces so we can just bind that surface to an OpenGL texture
using the GLX extension (on X11 at least, no idea about Windows). This
could be a fun GSoC project, if somebody is interested. (But then again,
Opal itself is not complete either.)

Cheers,
