Agreed. But we tested that and the best trade-off between quality and
performance for our use-case is that distance field technique. It seems
I'll have to provide a lower quality fallback using that technique
though...

  When starting unity8 (this started at image 136, probably when mir
  0.13 landed):

  Adb is broken because of bug 1458043, so use the following workaround
  to get it to work again:

  $ sudo ubuntu-emulator create --channel=ubuntu-touch/rc-proposed/ubuntu test_x86 --use-raw-disk
  $ mkdir -p /tmp/mount1 /tmp/mount2
  $ sudo mount ~/.local/share/ubuntu-emulator/test_x86/sdcard.img /tmp/mount1
  $ sudo mount /tmp/mount1/system.img /tmp/mount2
  $ sudo vi /tmp/mount2/var/lib/lxc/android/pre-start.d/20-no-default-prop-adb
  #! /bin/sh

  # Avoid changing the the property when running on the emulator
  if ! grep -q "qemu=1" /proc/cmdline; then
      sed -i '/^persist.sys.usb.config=.*/d' $LXC_ROOTFS_PATH/default.prop || true
  fi
  $ sudo umount /tmp/mount2
  $ sudo umount /tmp/mount1
