Comment (by pulkomandy):

 Having BGLView in Haiku and the rest of the code in Mesa creates useless
 strong coupling between Haiku and Mesa versions. When BGLView is in Mesa,
 we can easily switch Mesa versions of even completely replace Mesa with
 something else. For example, TinyGL provides an ABI compatible replacement
 for BGLView that you can use if you want.

 So, this should stay as it is now.
