Ahh, it's #layoutBounds:, not #bounds:, and layoutBounds: does indeed
directly assign to bounds.

This looks like a bug.  Morphs used to be able to rely on intercepting
#extent:, and why should layout be any different?  At the least there
should be a comment here, but why not use #bounds: instead of
#layoutBounds: ?  And why not have #layoutBounds: fall down to
#position: and #extent:, the way #bounds: does ?
