The overhead referred to here is administrative overhead. We pull in other 
pieces of Gecko outside of Azure proper in order to use Azure in Servo. We also 
needed to create APIs to get at the native surfaces backing Azure’s Skia render 
targets. Upgrading this modified Azure has been causing some difficulties, as 
Martin discussed in his post.

Perhaps the right lesson to be learned here is that we should make it possible 
for Servo to use Azure without any additional pieces from Gecko, and to expose 
native surfaces backing Azure draw targets in a more uniform way.
