The reason why the shield drivers are "faster" isn't because they expose OpenGL or OpenGL|ES, but simply that it's build from a battle-tested codebase with hundreds of devs.
As for the rpi - yes, the A72 is a *lot* faster at dolphin, but there's already plenty of devices with fast CPUs that get let down by other things (like gpu drivers etc.)
And as for a 64-bit userspace - isn't it all upstream now? Even the VideoCore driver is in mesa? So it /should/ be possible for someone knowledgeable to put something together? Right? At least nowhere near the difficulty of trying to pry info out of phone vendors
