if you explicitly pass a CapsChooser .. that one may do that,
if not - and the native stuff recommends a format, we use that one.

the native recommendation is what the WGL/GLX ARB choose functions provide,
thought this matches the native behavior best.

but you may override it with your chooser ..

and maybe .. we just have a bug :)

if you like, your analysis is very welcome as always, sure thing

me trying to fix BITMAP windows bug (offscreen if no GLPbuffer is avail)
