Window and screen coordinates



In functions such as atk_text_get_character_extents() that return position 
coordinates, how about adding another parameter which can be an enumeration 
specifying whether the returned coordinates are relative to the window or to the 
screen? The parameter could be either SCREEN or WINDOW.
This would clear up any ambiguity concerning what coordinates the function is 
returning and remove the need to have two functions such as in AtkComponent with 
atk_component_get_position() and atk_component_get_position_on_screen().

Any comments?
