I just found the email below, in the distant past :)
I'd like to use it for reference, to get it working in -dq.

it works with animation rather well, it's fast, it works with multiple
nested clip loops
maybe we can keep it like that.

Post by architetto francesco fantoni <hva - hermanitos verdes architetti>new implementation, this time using clip() cairo function.
it works, but i had to use a sort of dirty trick for the endclip()
command, introducing a RestoreCtx object, in order to insert it in
grobstack. It is till missing a way of checking the effective
correspondace of beginclip-endclip pairs (if there are more endclip
calls than beginclip, it will probably mess things).
The results are ok, but i'm not satisfied of the way i managed endclip,
it seems a bit unclean, any idea?

i've made an attempt at implementing clipping paths.
it's working more or less, and actually i'm rather proud of it, as it
was a bit an pain to work out, but i'm afraid there are still some
things not behaving as expected related to alpha values of mask.
i think i need help to fix it. (and maybe there are conceptual errors in
my implementation too)
