Support VK_KHR_surface ext.?

[oscarbg]

just found that vulkaninfo works (saying deprecated ICD interface) but vkcube doesn't work saying missing VK_KHR_surface..
I read:
"Talvos can also handle vertex and fragment shaders, with basic support for offscreen rendering currently in progress"
this just means no plan to support VK_KHR_surface ext?
thanks..

There's no concrete plan to support VK_KHR_surface right now, but clearly it's important to get lots of real codes working (i.e. anything that wants to render onscreen).

There's a few different ways this could be implemented, and I'm not currently sure which one is best. The simplest approach would just be to handle the extension APIs and just ignore them (i.e. rendering goes nowhere). If it's important to actually see the stuff being rendered something more complex will be required.
