We're aware of this technique, but it has a couple of obvious issues:


1. It requires us to create a duplicate canvas, possibly using many MB of RAM. It's generally going to be less memory to keep a list of geometric regions. And performance won't be terrible if you implement some spatial hashing, etc.


2. It doesn't allow for sub pixel testing. In your algorithm above, only one region can be at a pixel (which also means it isn't our standard drawing code with anti-aliasing). Consider a zoomed canvas, where we might want more accurate hit testing.
