Hi Carlos,

These layout classes have worked fine for dozens of example.  They are
small, simple and stupid.

I don't understand why, if you want vertical layout, you want to set a
child's display to "inline-block".  That would not layout vertically
unless you are counting in line-wrapping.  To me, that is an exception
case, and extra code and an additional layout class is the PAYG way to
deal with it.

To me, there is no excess HTML code because we do not generate much HTML
at all!  We do run a bunch of JS that creates HTMLElements, but that is
not tags in an HTML file that has to be parse by the browser, so other
than some opinion of what is "best", we need to run profiling to determine
the trade-offs.  Harbs claims that having JS set the style object is
better than having JS set classnames.  You will need to prove him wrong.

And still, I don't believe whether we use the style object or not is going
to cause people to not use Royale.  We can clean this up later.

My 2 cents,
-Alex
