// FIXME: We need some way to tell when the device upon which the canvas is
// being displayed has changed (e.g., the user drags the canvas's parent
// window from one screen on multi-screen environment to another, when the
// user changes the display bit depth or screen resolution, etc). When this
// occurs, we need the canvas to reset the gl function pointer tables for the
// canvas, because the new device may have different capabilities (e.g.,
// doesn't support as many opengl extensions) from the original device. This
// hook would also be useful in other GLDrawables (for example, offscreen
// buffers such as pbuffers, whose contents may or may not be invalidated when
// the display mode changes, depending on the vendor's GL implementation).
//
// Right now I'm not sure how hook into when this change occurs. There isn't
// any AWT event corresponding to a device change (as far as I can
// tell). We could constantly check the GraphicsConfiguration of the canvas's top-level
// parent to see if it has changed, but this would be very slow (we'd have to
// do it every time the context is made current). There has got to be a better
// solution, but I'm not sure what it is.
// FIXME: Subclasses need to call resetGLFunctionAvailability() on their
// context whenever the displayChanged() function is called on our
// GLEventListeners
