+	While publicly importing `arsd.simpledisplay` is not actually necessary,
+	most real-world code would eventually import said module as well anyway.
+
+	More importantly, this public import prevents users from facing certain
+	symbol clashes in their code that would occur in modules importing both
+	`pixmappresenter` and `simpledisplay`.
+	For instance both of these modules happen to define different types
+	as `Pixmap`.
