Yes, but it would regress on features.
There are basically two options for TAChart now:
1) Wait until FPCanvas/FPPen/FPBrush/FPFont interface is exactly
the same as LCL equivalents.
2) Introduce TAChart-specific classes for that.

Option 1 is architecturally better, but will require waiting for at least
one FPC release, maybe longer. So I think I'll implement option 2.
