Worth (so to speak) also pointing out this bit:
As I talk about in the comment in the sample code, it may still be
beneficial to add some automatic snapping to cairo. It would simply
make it easier to achieve effects such as this---and in particular,
to achieve these effects regardless of what scaling the current
transformation might be performing.
Was such an “automatic snapping” API ever added to Cairo? One that is
independent of the current transformation?
Trick question: in fact, it already existed even as he spoke.
It’s precisely the effect that *aliasing* achieves.
