Don't think there'd be a benefit for this one since a slur is not a line
or similar readily available shape.  You would not want to dash it with
a clip mask: that would make the dashing unaligned with the curve and
the beginning and end of slur.

So at least this one is going to be just as much work with and without
Cairo.
