Yes it's much better. Now the problem is that the rest of the code
won't be able to cope with it: in order to make sure painting always
happens correctly, you will need to invalidate all the DCEs concerned
by the window, to make sure all the update regions are recomputed
correctly. Unfortunately this can't be done inter-process at the
moment...
