I agree with that option.
The problem also appears with the atari frontend, but it's not really
atari
or FreeMiNT related. It's about the font used for treeview redraws.
I do pack the netsurf package with the Bitsream Vera font, because
it is small compared to the Deja-Vu font (several MB smaller).
Also, I bet the internal font renderer for the framebuffer frontend
probably has no triangles.
Also, I don't like the idea that the treeview is dependent on the font
plotter / the font.

Anti-aliasing is so important for the treeview? I doubt that.
KISS! I vote for the polygon plot! :)
