Groovie TODO

Things that need doing for the Groovie engine. As always, talk to the team before starting one, in case someone's already doing it.

Cursors not pretty in non-paletted cursor platform (it seems we should provide a fallback)
Performance bad on low-end platforms (e.g. 650MHz WinCE, stuttering during "cd audio" (mp3) playback)
Record AdLib music in Dosbox and ScummVM, check for differences

Fix ROQ glitches
Complete the opcodes
The Mac version uses QuickTime MIDI instead of XMIDI (although all the XMIDI files are still present and work fine)
