This is stretching the open-source userspace requirements quite a bit
since it's just a simple testcase and not really real-world userspace
(like a gstreamer module, X driver or whatever). Dave Airlie recently
clarified for the atomic series that just a bunch of test apps
(specifically for atomic glplanes) isn't good enough, and he wants the
real thing.

Where is that?

Also adding Dave.
