Note that this is in direct contradiction to the proposed scaler api. In it the size of the window is in transformed pixels. I think now the scaler proposal should be changed.I was referring to surface pixels here, which is what you get after the transformation of the scaler extension.
But the output of the scaler is not pixels. It certainly is not the pixels in the buffer, and if this hi-dpi scaling or arbitrary transforms done by the shell is done, it is not pixels on the output either.
Integers in the input space, however, always correspond to real physical pixels in the buffer.
If coordinates are always in buffer space, the compositor can multiply all the transforms together and not have to think about the partial transforms.
