There is none of that in Quartz 2D. Quartz is a drawing system and it's geometric capabilities are geared toward drawing.

It would seem to be there in some form since you can do:

	- create arbitrary path
	- set clip to path
	- create another path
	- fill; only the intersection of the paths is filled

Well, that could be done using stencils. With today's powerful graphics hardware, I wouldn't be surprised if it were. Especially given the cost of calculating intersections of complex paths (just try drawing an NSBezierPath with 100,000 segments).
