Hi.

I have a component that uses the Graphics primitives in the
updateDisplayList. It does lots of text outputting, so it uses the
technique of having a single UITextField, getting the bitmap data and
bitmapFill-ing it to the canvas. Adding multiple first-class components to
the canvas is just way, way too slow to be viable.

This all works great. However, we now want to draw other things - things
that are not so easy to clip - eg: Circles!

I was surprised to see that Graphics offers no clipping. Is the only way
around this to draw the component to something like a Sprite, then to
bitmapFill that to the screen doing manual clipping calculations ?
