Summary: Hi res vector graphics mixed with scaled bitmaps?

Initial Comment:
This is a bit far fetched, but with the SCI engine on it's way to be ported, and Cruise for a Corpse also sporting vector graphics, this (O)systemic suggestion seems timely...

The idea would be to
1) pass the various bitmap planes through a scaler,
2) render vector graphics at the scaled up resolution,
3) blit everything together.

I assume it would be resource consuming too, but big screen devices usually come with fast processors anyway...

Since implementing this most probably requires to put the current rendering pipeline on it's head I'm not even sure it's possible to do in Cruise), I don't expect to see it anytime soon... It would be nice to have nevertheless...


Edge anti-aliasing would even be better, although obviously more difficult and even more ressource intensive.
