The ImageData APIs already provide the ability to do this and are
already supported by Firefox, Opera and Safari.
Given the ImageData APIs, and given that they are generally more efficient
at the typical use cases for getPixel/setPixel, I haven't added getPixel/
setPixel to the spec.

The opera-2dgame context also has APIs for collision detection and control
painting

I'm not familiar with the current canvas spec, but are these features supported
somehow? Or would they have the potential to be included ?
