Replacing pixmaps seems right to me (because cairo_surface_t is basically replacing GdkDrawable). But pixbufs ... a "pixbuf has-a surface" model seems more sane. Deprecating all of the gdk-pixbuf library and GTK APIs using it seems 1) not worth it and 2) like it would result in a less-convenient API. I guess a counterargument is "maybe you want to use a non-image surface sometimes" so maybe we should go through your list and see if that's actually useful. But if we didn't have a GdkPixmap API before, I'm not sure there's much case that a pixmap-backended cairo_surface_t is useful either.
