your outrage is not justified libdraw is not a drawing backend, xlib is the drawing backend as far as i can see libdraw hides certain xlib primitives it does not try to be a general purpose bitmap manipulation api, but a widget handling lib with font loading, window resizing, etc with minimal drawing support the name could have been chosen with more care, but sane names are usually taken
