**Need** to no, but it's convenient. I don't particularly expect the histogram configuration to be 
changed past the first frame, but changing the metering mode for example would require a new weights 
array and separating them avoids re-writing the config unnecessarily.

It's part of the header, so it's available to all blocks...they can all be disabled somehow though 
the exact mechanism differs.

We don't pass blocks where the values are unchanged (so only a couple go in each frame - white 
balance and digital gain IIRC), but if we want to transition a block from enabled to disabled for 
whatever reason the driver would need to see it

Sure, ok.

That diagram is incomplete...it's only supposed to highlight the tap points and the blocks that 
surround them. So we'll need to extend it to accommodate that (which probably will be easier as an SVG)

Horizontally, yes. So the maximum pixel count would be (width / 2) x height.

To pixels, so particular configurations of the skipping and the offsets can cause some of the colour
