Err... One would obviously need to use something else[1] if it's missing,
or error out.

appl_getinfo() in newer AES versions can be used to find out what
features AES supports, I guess it could report whether this kind of
flag is supported by the AES.

[1] I.e. Just overwrite all over the screen regardless of the window size
    (as unlike on X11, GEM doesn't prevent writing over window borders)
    and use the menubar trick to get desktop menu redrawn afterwards,
    like already discussed.
