I've seen this come up before (maybe in Mark's book or on this list).
Just how much of a pain would it be to change this to use relative
coords?

I suspect there'd be at least a tiny slowdown as each morph has to ask
all its owner morphs about its current x/y, but doesn't it sorta have
to do that anyway if there are rotate/transform morphs in the middle?
