This turns out not to be the case after all. In the OpenVG session, we were 
informed that the Raspberry Pi does actually use the same silicon for OpenGL ES 
and OpenVG. There is no magical gain in performance from running GLES and VG in 
parallel :/ (Apparently there was some confusion with dispman, which is 
completely separate.)

There are other chips that have separate VG silicon, or even no GLES at all, so 
there is still a strong usecase for OpenVG.
