Me neither.

Alternatively you can transfer information in either direction between OG
and DG in image form (DG -> OG: send direct graphics commands to a Z buffer
or pixmap, tvrd the buffer and load the byte data into an IDLgrImage;
OG->DG: render objects to IDLgrBuffer, extract bytes and TV to screen.)

But I think neither of these work-arounds invalidates the above statement
(David's I think).
