[webgl2] A separate package?

[stwind]

It is increasingly hard to use a single uniform compatible declaration for both WebGL 1 and 2 features (extensions, textures, UBO etc.). While WebGL2 achieving pervasive support now, would it be nice to have standalone package for WebGL2 only?

[postspectacular]

Yeah, the moment has finally come for WebGL2. Instead of separating v2 I'd propose to extract the legacy v1 stuff into own package... What are your thoughts?

[stwind]

Yeah extracting legacy stuffs to its own package seems to be a better idea.

I am not quite sure how to do that yet, since there will be quite some overlaps/similarities between them. And as the "new" webgl package keep evolving to be more WebGL2, some common parts will almost eventually break for the legacy webgl1 package.

So I think the problem will be like how much or what should be kept in a common package, if any? Obviously the gl constants is the safest one to keep as common.
