I find it hard to imagine this would break anything that wasn't already broken. Then we can talk about "fill bounding box" and "stroke bounding box", and assume that all current uses of "bounding box" refer to "fill bounding box" unless otherwise stated. Rob -- "If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. If we claim we have not sinned, we make him out to be a liar and his word is not in us." [1 John 1:8-10]
