We put a lot of thought into how this might work for the Paint activity in particular, which seems like it would be a prime example for it's use in an arbitrarily large space. Special care was taken to minimize the extent to which one would have to switch between stylus and finger while drawing. Naturally, designs for activities like chat, or handwriting, etc. may not depend on the ability to adjust the location of the mapped input region on screen.
