Makes sense. I'll do that.

There also doesn't seem to be any way - implicit or explicit - to perform
YUV->RGB/BGR on the GPU with the D2D API.
There are a number of workarounds I can think of (e.g. D3D shader interop)
but I want to play around with that only after the initial Direct2D vout is
committed.
I'm also hoping that this will be addressed in the next version of the API
(keep in mind the Direct2D APIs are brand new).

Obviously using DirectCompute is the way to do this - but that's not
relevant in this area of code (I believe there's a GSoC project doing this?
How's that going?)
