More than that.
I'd prefer not seeing such invocations (copyClipRect:)
a more correct form for usage is:
canvas clipBy:rect during: [ .... ]
so it will clip using given rect, and then restore clipping back to
previous one.
And of course there is no need to copy canvas (except from some corner
cases).. it's only adds a complexity on top of already complex drawing
operations.
