FWIW, in Chromium (downstream, non-WebKit) we ended up adding a "vector" (as in math, not the STL) class recently to address the sort of "offset/delta between two points" use you're describing, because neither points nor sizes made for a good fit all the time. The folks working on Chromium's compositor might have more feedback, but personally I thought that was a good move, and it turned out to not be too hard to convert almost everything at once, simply by removing all the functions implementing mathematical operations between type pairs we no longer wanted to support and seeing what broke. Of course, such a drastic move in WebKit would need to have significant buy-in ahead of time, and my suspicion is that it wouldn't get it. PK
