Nice!

Well, the idea is to add support for drawing Forms to VectorEngine. I 
haven't given that priority yet, because I think in general vector 
graphics are preferable (if it is possible to choose).

The attach is a hack using the venerable WarpBlt, that can rotate and 
scale Forms. Please try it. It might suffice until we have the 
VectorEngine VM plugin. If it works for you, I'll later merge it.
