Ugh.  Right after I said that, I came across harder evidence to support my
claim.  Piranha has a documented Hardware Blur effect which uses OpenGL to
accelerate accelerate blurring and sharpening in hardware.  Matting is
also done is also done in hardware.  I found this is the what's new
document for Piranha 3.06.  Piranha is now in the 3.3 range.
