transform-origin isn't strictly needed at all.  It's syntactic
sugar.  Use of any transform-origin other than the top-left is the
same as adding translate(originX, originY) to the beginning of the
transform list and translate(-originX, -originY) to the end of the
transform list.

I think providing the syntactic sugar for origins for the simple
case is a reasonable compromise between ease-of-use and complexity,
and I don't see a strong reason to change it.
