Major grievance with Gdk interface to GdkPixbuf.

[Vasco Alexandre Da Silva Costa <vasc rnl ist utl pt>]

Hello,

Here is my problem:

gdk_pixbuf_render_to_drawable(), gdk_pixbuf_render_to_drawable_alpha() and
friends don't do clipping. They merely give an error message when the
src coordinates aren't inside the GdkPixbuf. This a a major nuisance to
the programmer, very easy to fix in the library, and i have already had to
make a wrapper for it.

BTW i'm using gtk+-1.3.10.

Basically, all drawing primitives must do clipping. I dunno if i have
missed any spots (maybe internal GdkPixbuf functions have the same problem?).

Happy coding,
