This sounded a bit more negative than I intended.  I don't mind hit testing 
being modified in this way as long as we think we can make it truly 
cross-platform (such that everyone who wants similar functionality can use the 
code), and it would be very important to not regress the single point case.  If 
those conditions can be met, then I would be satisfied.
