Good to have some consistancy.

I find some of those changes a bit confusing, but I suspect you wanted to keep the code the same, in all files, at all costs. Sadly, because we have to deal with so many demos, the review process is really hard, so apologies if I missed something obvious.
Overall, I think that merging this without feature detection implemented doesn't seem very useful. Right now, most of those additions is just a dead code.
However, just like I mentioned in #777 (comment) , I do agree that we need this.

Is this unfinished? Are you planning to implement this in the force push?
(same for other files)

What is the current consensus regarding PR #777? Should I wait for that to be merged, or should this one be merged first and that one rebased on top? Or should the existing loader code from x11_opengl3 be adapted for the other demos instead of using GLAD?

I don't believe you will get #777 merged any time soon. I would ignore it for now.

I think this will be a way to go in the future. Right now, we have way too many duplicate code in the demos, so we need to deal with this problem before doing anything else.

The differences between the OpenGL 3 and OpenGL ES 2 demos are:
glMapBufferRangeis in OpenGL 3.0 or OpenGL ES 3.0 and could be used as an alternative, butglMapBufferis only available in OpenGL ES with extensions.
