Not at the moment ;-)
It would require some redesign for efficiency. Drawing of InfiniteForms
is relatively slow because each tile is drawn separately. Also, you can't
repeat only a part of the image. Maybe a tiled BitMapFillStyle would be
the way to go, it certainly is faster. But again, you'd need a different
fill style for each edge, and there is no way of stretching in
BitMapFillStyle ...
