So, IIUC, the idea is to use xcb_image_put (probably simpler than xcb_put_image, but YMMV) to put use an image as an alpha mask for drawing shapes? I don't have enough insight to judge right now, but my guess is that adding a pixmap library to draw pixmap would duplicate drawing API. Not that the code would double, but we will have 2 distinctives ways to draw things, which can be a bit confusing. My first look would be to see how an current image object can be used and how easy/clean it is with xcb_image_put for example. That'd permit to keep only one image library exported. If it's really bad/crappy, then, let's add a pixmap library to draw 1 bit pixmap.
