xrender backend is -independent of the decoration- lousy on at least nvidia and intel \
and likely anywhere else. On the other hand, several decos have a strong preference \
for the raster system (probably because of QGradient defects - no, not fixable \
upstream. driver issue. code is there but not used ...)

The patch allows to configure the system (stronger than QT_GRAPHICSSYSTEM environment \
or qmake variable, but weaker than --graphicssystem) and also preselects \
&quot;native&quot; when xrender is used and raster is not explicitly selected.

For this purpose the patch also writes back the compositing backend on fallback for \
OpenGL issues.</pre>  </td>
