Hmpf. Why can't we change Rectangle >> #center:extent: to use #/ instead of #//? What would break?

I am surprised that my values get rounded at that location. They get rounded at a later anyway. At least in the graphics system and in Morphic.

Scaling for morphs with TransformationMorph is a little weird.
If you rotate a SystemWindow and use the scale handle, the window scales as a form

Indeed.

In my own images I have implemented #preciseCenter: and similar methods
both in Pont and Rectangle to bypass rounding and work with floats.

But I do not think that transitioning to an overall new convention (like
getting rid of rounding altogether) is going to be safe. A lot of
morphic code assumes that rectangles are always about pixels and expect
their dimensions to be integers.
