I've done a "truecolour" chunky mode in overscan using blitter for feeding colours. Similar to "where's my fanta"-screen in the Base Cage demo by Live! but in overscan.

So yes you can definitly benefit from it in overscan as well.

Starting the blitter is something like:

d0 = number of lines to copy, 1 in the case
d1 = blitter control value, in this case %11000000
a0 = $ffff8a38
a1 = $ffff8a3c

move.w d0,(a0) ;2n
move.b d1,(a1) ;2n+2n+2n*numwords

= 6 nops before it starts to do it's work. 7 nops on Mega STe.
