Grease Pencil viewport drawing has been rewritten to improve performance, handling millions of vectors, and a nice side effect is that it's now fully integrated in Blender's pipeline so Grease Pencil objects react to light (as seen in the video). Support for casting shadows will follow soon. Stroke corners and fast-strokes have also been improved greatly.

Thanks to the development magic by Clément Foucault and Antonio Vazquez, the 2D animation pipeline in Blender is growing to a whole new level. If everything goes fine these features should be available on Blender 2.83 (expected May 2020).
