Cairo will remain separate library, work that's going on in 2.8 to
integrate with Cairo means you'll be able to use it with GTK+ easily, as
well as that GTK+ itself will use Cairo, but it doesn't mean Cairo will
be swallowed by GTK+. If you're using it today, just continue doing so,
and after 2.8 you'll find your current Cairo work easier, not redundant.
