Rect seems to mirror quite well the path discussion I think - a data structure vs a graphical context...
I see now how a non-gfx rectangle helps communicate data but can the graphical react not extend data structure type rect so they are more interoperable? Additionally it is strange to define these in the same library as true/false and storage primitives are declared imho. I wonder if we are missing a supporting gfx-structures lib that Evas and many others could depend upon? And path and Rect would belong there...
