If I am not mistaken, it had to do with something like print fidelity. I hope it is really gone by beta 2, because that kind of rendering is what renders me headaches (pun intended) after playing around for more than 15 minutes with Mac OS X.

Personally, I am very anxious to see the new text rendering stack in action!
