* Change stroke code to go through one giant polygon. This will fix
problems with stroking self-intersecting paths.

* Implement cairo_stroke_path, (very easy to do after the above change
is done).

* Fix the intersection problem, (see reference to Hobby's paper
mentioned in cairo_traps.c).

* Implement support for programmatic patterns.

* Implement cairo_text_extents, cairo_glyph_extents, cairo_text_path,
cairo_glyph_path, and cairo_stroke_path, cairo_arc_to.

* Investigate what needs to be done so that old X servers aren't
swamped with image transport. This may involve adding one or more of
the following functions:

   cairo_flush
   cairo_erase
   cairo_mark_dirty

* Re-implement the trapezoid rasterization algorithm according to the
new "specification".

* Stroking degenerate paths should still draw caps.  Round caps are
easy; square should probably draw an axis aligned square.

* Verification, profiling, optimization.

A comparison with PostScript
============================

Here's a list of several classes of PostScript operators indicating
which operators have rough equivalents in Cairo and which do not. In
general, the name of a Cairo function corresponding to a PostScript
operator can be obtained by inserting a '_' between each word and
prefixing it with "cairo_". For example, "cairo_move_to" corresponds
to the PostScript "moveto".

In cases where the name of the Cairo function deviates from this
convention, or when the behavior of the Cairo function is
significantly different, the change is noted in parentheses below.

This list is not exhaustive, (there are definitely some minor (major?)
semantic deviations that are not noted below). Also, this list is
almost certainly out of date with respect to the current Cairo
implementation. Caveat lector.

Oerators that are not yet in Cairo, but probably should be: arcto,
strokepath, rectclip?, clipsave/restore?, setstrokeadjust?,
currentdash, grestoreall?, initgraphics?, currentgstate?, setgstate?,
erasepage?, setsmoothness?
