somebody with more know how about Tk.jl should comment on this, but i think
you are right. The Tk.jl Cairo Canvas is using a 'plain' window/widget to
provide a cairo surface and context and doesn't fully replace the original
tk Canvas who has drawing methods of it's own - not cairo based.

I'd be interested in the Gtk example - even if it's not working. I'd assume
that add_view_viewport is the issue.
