First, as soon as you use a layout panel, it adds a div to the document's 
body, using it as a ruler to measure centimeters in pixels (this is the very 
first div here, moved out of view using top:-20cm).
Then, each layout panel is a div, containing another ruler to measure EMs 
and EXs (it has to be repeated for each panel because it depends on the 
font-size applied locally or inherited).
Then, each child of layout panel lives in its own div (I don't remember the 
rationale for this, but it had to be done so it works in all browsers and 
allows some kinds of styling –borders and margins–).

So here, you have the CM rule, followed by the RootLayoutPanel, containing 
its own ruler and a child. That child in turns is a layout panel, with its 
own ruler and a single child.
