The API is missing the stream functions. JPEG API has previously been
proposed [1]. Behdad's reply [2] summarizes the reason the patches were
declined:

  "PNG support is cairo's way to import and export images, and it
  does the job just like that, losslessly and in a rather efficient
  format. Anything else should be implemented on top of other cairo
  API.  It's like the toy text api."
