it is encapsulating the objects and methods of these "paint" drawing
models whether you essentially have "paths" that are painted and filled
on a "graphic" context. This is the same for CoreGraphics, GDI+ and
Cairo

I have started using it in the dccp.cpp in mac long time ago, and at
that time talked about it on the list, but I was not doing it completely
everywhere (taking shortcuts), but during the last week I cleaned things
up. I'll commit this version shortly. The code in dccg.cpp is rerouting
the commands to such a graphics context. So it becomes kind of a
"generic" dc, allowing backwards compatibility for most operations.

Best,

Stefan
