I doubt that, since removing the Name field from _egl_driver would leave just
the _EGLAPI in it, which should mean, one could remove _egl_driver entirely.
Which is a bit more work than I have time for in the evenings at the moment. I
could maybe look at it on Sunday. But I'd hazard a guess, that you'd be way
faster than that. So feel free to send that patch.

Cheers,
Kai
