Good point, that's why these limitation should be clearly stated and documented 
from the start so that we won't go in many trouble in the STR area...

A wrapper would be easy to do,
However, the transparency would be limited to the Fl_Cairo_Window management, 
not its contents that would contains (like for GL) many non transparent cairo 
code ...
IMHO, we don't want to mess the existing fltk drawing code with cairo as in 
FLTK2 because it would slow down considerably the lib.
