I would like the C++ committee's attention to be drawn to the dangers, for committee, to try to make decisions outside of its domain of expertise. I see more potential for harm than for good in having the C++ committee join the ranks of non graphics specialists thinking they know how to do graphics... If that helps, we can give a pile of evidence for how having generalist Web circles trying to standardize graphics APIs has repeatedly given unnecessarily poor APIs...
