Research direction

The issue points to the Direct2D custom-effects documentation, specifically the “Adding a compute shader to a custom transform” section. Start by reading that section and comparing its requirements with the repository’s existing Direct2D and compute-shader support; the issue does not identify an entry point, file, test, or concrete completion criteria.

Description

proposal :bulb: untriaged :toolbox:

Filing this for ... the future :)

At some point I'll want to start dipping my toe into compute shaders so I can convert the remaining CPU-based effects in Paint.NET over to the GPU. These effects require the use of compute shaders because they need to build a local histogram.
