Yes. I should say that I don't actually have a need to compose larger areas at 
the moment, I just thought that the colour strategies shouldn't really need 
to know anything about tiles, they should just work with QUANTUMs and arrays 
of QUANTUMs. Since tileBlt could be used to blt larger areas, it seemed to 
make sense to remove the association with tiles.
