I'm back from A CoruΓ±a, where I attended @igalia.com's #WebEnginesHackfest for the first time. It was an awesome opportunity to connect with W3C staff, browser vendors, and fellow software developers. I was also able to land some pull requests to engines and specs, making it an actual hackfest.

It occured to me that the web doesn't provide any utility functions for working with the geometry primitives (e.g. DOMRect), so I've proposed adding some: github.com/w3c/fxtf-dra...

Seems like an obvious addition to me, but curious if others agree? Any other obvious ones beyond what I've mentioned?
