Details

Currently when we need to do double-pass rendering and alpha extraction, the object frame sends a signal message and then two paint messages, collects both paint results, and does alpha extraction on them. It would involve less message overhead and fewer shared memory buffers if we sent a "do double-pass rendering" message, and the plugin process made both of the paint calls and did the alpha extraction, sending the result back in a shared memory buffer.
