Yes, the current line clipping approach is faster,
especially for line (-100000000, ....). I can
certainly see the attraction to use such a method.
But it is not pixel correct.
It might be 'easy' to get the expected behavior using
do_line, but it is even easier to get unexpected
behavior. Personally I think it should be 'easiest'
to get pixel correct behavior and a little harder to
get 'fastest but inaccurate' behavior. Usually
referred to as the priniciple of the least suprise I
believe.
