PDF supports native clipping on all graphic elements. Glyphs are part of
the graphic elements.

The only clipping we currently implement is the MediaBox (ie: the size
of the page).

In case somebody else wanted to implement clipping earlier than I can.
See page 123 (table 4.1) in the PDF v1.3 specification document.
Clipping Paths (W & W*) and Graphics state (q & Q most likely).
