Yup. I don't understand whether you're just agreeing with me or disagreeing :)

With shadow trees in place, we need to let them react to events
happening in nodes, distributed to insertion points.

Can you elaborate on this a bit more. Note, you don't need to compute
offsetX/Y until they are actually requested (which is what WebKit does
anyway).

I agree. That's not what I am proposing.

Okay.
