How about "the new scaling algorithms are only used for the image backend and
sometimes also randomly by other backends, if a fallback to the image backend
occurs"?

(which is why the hack that [0] undoes was necessary to have consistent behavior
between xlib and image. Always falling back gives consistent results.)

Cheers,
Uli

P.S.: Did I mention that the image-only scaling changes scare me?
