Sure, I see, but I was refering to the particular case of the GNU PDF library.

For example:
- Could an object be a PDF object in our case ? Or we should choose
  a higher abstraction ?
- What about contexts in our case ? Could those be
  associated to a page, or a document, or a PDF object ?

We should state the scope of our abstractions, don't you think ?

Or maybe the team has already defined that for GNU PDF and
I'm an important fool for not doing my homework.
If that's not the case, let's debate :-)
