IIRC, the Mono gdiplus isn't so useful for us because it doesn't deal with GDI handles the way we need. That's one reason we have our own gdiplus now. It might be more useful if you would look at fixing bugs in our gdiplus rather than trying to wrap Mono's. - Dan

Are there any plans to use cairo in the Wine gdiplus implementation like mono does? Or would that need a winecairo.drv?

Not that I know of. But I don't think that's a problem.
I think a more interesting question is, when are we going to buckle down and implement a DIB engine? - Dan

Maybe use cairo there... an advanced GDI-like "DIB engine" is part of it.

It probably isn't pixel-for-pixel identical to the Windows GDI.

gdiplus is just a wrapper (mostly) around gdi32 APIs. IMHO spreding around ideas about introducing a Wine dependency on cairo missing the point of its usefulness.
