A bit of Mac graphics legacy that I was able to resurrect recently (which, like QuickDraw, is also by Bill Atkinson) is the dithering algorithm used by HyperCard. I've released an implementation last year (I don't think I sent an announcement to the list):

Another useful aspect of QD was that it was not anti-aliased -- I use
a lot of QuickDraw based graphics for calculation, i.e., building 2D
look-up tables or data-in-picture storage. Loosing this functionality
at some point is going to hit sorely.

I'm pretty sure CG can be set to not anti-alias too (though this may be
tricky to access from within RB).  But I too will miss QD, alas.

Best,
