I'm afraid the current code still heavily depend on QuickDraw to do
a lot of stuff (select font, select color, move drawing position, etc.),
ATSUI is just used for font rendering.

IMHO, to completely remove the dependency on QuickDraw, we
should use Quartz 2D (plus ATSUI, of course). To make this
replacement, a lot of work need to be done.
