Here's probably a better question to ask than just to fix the example. Was it intended that the Rectangle.xy attribute disappear? I couldn't find it documented in API_CHANGES. It appears that there was just a change at some point in Michael's transforms work. If it's considered desirable to have it back, I'll volunteer to whip up a patch to make it a property. If not, let's just make sure we document this in API_CHANGES. My opinion is that randomly breaking API is always bad, and there's not much effort involved in fixing it here. On the other hand, we've already had 3 with this breakage, and no complaints up until now (and that's from our own docs :P) Thoughts?
