How about making the API get a string, but define macros for the
standard ones:
#define CAIRO_PDF_INFO_TITLE "Title"
I've seen many APIs designed this way and have totally appreciated their
extensibility. (fontconfig for example)
I also like the idea of having macros defined for standard paper sizes,
but that's a separate issue.
