It's not quite the same thing, but it actually be nice to associate an
extra void* with every cairo object. Then we could make sure that we
instantiate the same C++ object for each C object, so for instance,
after

CppObject* a = something.get_thing();
CppObject* b = something.get_thing();

(a == b) would be true.


GTK+/glib allows this via g_object_set_data(), and libxml has a void*
struct field for it.

But it's not really that important, and I guess it would break ABI.
