The patch will in the end eliminate any depth conversion (at least on the Wine side a driver might still do it internally but it can use more optimizations and in the best case does it all in hardware). When the patch is done we can directly blit DIBs with a depth different from the screen depth to the screen. What depths are used for the DIBs?

Don't remember, but the point isn't blitting of dibs to screen (which can be indeed a big advantage if done by hardware....) but the DRAWING on DIBs which are of different depth than screen.
