right. 

i don't devel on win/mac and haven't for years now, but fwiu, the exact 
mechanism to do this is platform specific. still, it works rather well on all 
platforms so doesn't paint us into a platform-specific corner in case we care 
about that.

most importantly, it means no application level IPC, no unecessary copying of 
data around, and all the rendering can be kept within the processes where it 
makes the most sense.
