Appendix: IIRC many of those small, home-brewn/hobby/amateur GUI libraries for OpenGL or stuff also support floating point coordinates. Interestingly enough, the GUI framework that comes with the DirectX SDK does *not* (possibly because the coordinates are in screen space -- is this what you necessarily want, though?).

How about GUIs which simply support floating point coordinates natively? I read that Cocoa uses floats for coordinates, and I would wildly guess that Avalon will make use if float vectors, as well (at least if the fancy 3D integration is remotely useful ;-).
