So you want to write a GUI framework
> it is genuinely hard to write an abstraction that provides adequate control of advanced GPU features (such as the compute capabilities) across subtly different low-level APIs.
That’s a solved problem in C++, see this library: http://diligentgraphics.com/diligent-engine/
> The rasterization techniques used in 3D are poorly suited to 2D tasks like clipping to vector paths or antialiasing
That’s subjective, I think these techniques are awesome fit for 2D. See this library: https://github.com/Const-me/Vrmac#2d-graphics BTW I have recently documented my antialiasing algorithm: https://github.com/Const-me/Vrmac/blob/master/Vrmac/Draw/VAA...
> these traditional techniques can start to perform very badly in 2D once there are lots of blend groups or clip regions involved, since each needs its own temporary buffer and draw call.
One doesn’t necessarily need temporary buffers or draw calls for that, can also do in the shaders, merging into larger draw calls.
> What this comes down to is instructing the operating system to embed a video or 3D view in some region of our window, and this means interacting with the compositor.
That indeed works in practice, but I don’t believe the approach is good. Modern GUI frameworks are using 3D GPUs exclusively. They don’t need much efforts to integrate 3D-rendered content.
As for the video, one only needs a platform API to decode and deliver frames in GPU textures. Microsoft has such API in the OS: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/mfmediaen... Once upon a time wanted to do the same on embedded Linux, wasn’t easy but still doable on top of V4L2 kernel calls: https://github.com/Const-me/Vrmac/tree/master/VrmacVideo

Simplistic but Powerful Game engines
So, Im using DiligentEngine as my graphics API. Its built for the 2 modern APIs, Vulkan and D3D12 (with OpenGL for older machines). It basically gives you access to buffers and lets you build what you want around it.

OpenXR bindings for Zig (VR + AR standard)
The example queries basic system information, but to do any rendering a graphics API has to be loaded and tied in via one of the OpenXR swapchain extensions. My testbed using Vulkan (via vulkan-zig) and DiligentEngine is available here, I reached the first milestone of a properly rendered triangle with stereoscopic rendering and headtracking last week! https://merveilles.town/@s_ol/105929563126486005
