Subject: support of the Core OpenGL profiles

Hello, first thanks for the great work on the Wx / OpenGL layer for Perl. I have more a feature request than a bug report. The recent WxWindows 3.0 brought the possibility to create an OpenGL context with the Core OpenGL profile specified. I would be very happy to have this available when creating an OpenGL context in WxPerl. I am aware, that the OpenGL functions higher than OpenGL 2.0 are not currently exported to Perl by the Perl OpenGL library, so I would write my rendering code in C++ and import it as an XS module. But it would make my life easier (and hopefully not just mine), if I could create the OpenGL context in a platform independent way at the Perl side without having to link the Wx libraries to the XS module. Thanks, Vojtech
