I think I found what to do. I need to create a bitmap context from the bitmap and drawing there. It makes sense that everything drawn is handled by contexts of course, I'm just a bit concerned about performances.
Internally NSImage will basically do the same thing - create a CGContext to draw the other content into it. The performance shouldn't be an issue in the vast majority of use cases. I'm not convinced that alternatives would actually create a significant speed up, and the additional code required to make it work universally would likely make any of those cases less optimal than what the OS already provides.
