Well, vertex buffer support is only a hack in the case of 'pre-transformed'
buffers (i.e. if the application transforms the buffer without rendering it
and later on renders the transformed buffers).

The only application I know of which uses this feature is MI4 (EMI).

A part from that, where is the hack located :-) ?
