We discussed this a little at the recent meeting, and decided this is
a display-device--specific operation. So I propose adding some
function along the lines of:

	void
	cairo_xlib_surface_set_???_offset (cairo_surface_t *surface,
					   int x, int y);

And I nominated Owen to name this function and provide an
implementation, since he's the one who is closest to the issue.

Other display devices may need similar functions eventually, and if
so, we can use this xlib function as a model.
