I'm a supporter of OGL but for now I think we miss two features that AGG
supports albeit it doesn't work as good as ol' OGL (and requires lots of
CPU on some platforms, i.e. MIPS/IRIX). So IMO we should stick to OGL as
default until next release.

Agree, what about disabling klash as default in 0.7.2?
