Yeah, I already mentioned Slug. And for some time I was cooking up something similar with my Rund glyph rasterizer (maybe I'll finish that as well, just out of spite regarding how EL published Slug).
But it's missing the elephant in the room:
Using the GPU is wastefull. Each and every process that loads GPU APIs will end up with >100 MiB of non-deduplicable (b/c ASLR) redundance in their resident working set.
