Quartz Extreme/GL/Composer or Hardware Acceleration in any future update?

As there is only software on the host computer, there is no additional hardware we add for acceleration. But we do have clever tricks for using hardware already in the computer. We do this on Windows today, which is how we do all the aero effects, so it is possible. However this is not implemented on the Mac yet.
