/**
 * Query and update positions and dimensions of nodes (and other things) within
 * within a document. Each vector has two elements, 'x' and 'y', which usually
 * represent width/height ('dimension vector') or left/top ('position vector').
 *
 * Vectors are used to manage the sizes and positions of elements, events,
 * the document, and the viewport (the visible section of the document, i.e.
 * how much of the page the user can actually see in their browser window).
 * Unlike most Javelin classes, @{class:JX.Vector} exposes two bare properties,
 * 'x' and 'y'. You can read and manipulate these directly:
 *
 *   // Give the user information about elements when they click on them.
 *   JX.Stratcom.listen(
 *     'click',
 *     null,
 *     function(e) {
 *       var p = new JX.Vector(e);
 *       var d = JX.Vector.getDim(e.getTarget());
 *
 *       alert('You clicked at <' + p.x + ',' + p.y + '> and the element ' +
 *             'you clicked is ' + d.x + 'px wide and ' + d.y + 'px high.');
 *     });
 *
 * You can also update positions and dimensions using vectors:
 *
 *   // When the user clicks on something, make it 10px wider and 10px taller.
 *   JX.Stratcom.listen(
 *     'click',
 *     null,
 *     function(e) {
 *       var target = e.getTarget();
 *       JX.$V(target).add(10, 10).setDim(target);
 *     });
 *
 * Additionally, vectors can be used to query document and viewport information:
 *
 *   var v = JX.Vector.getViewport(); // Viewport (window) width and height.
 *   var d = JX.Vector.getDocument(); // Document width and height.
 *   var visible_area = parseInt(100 * (v.x * v.y) / (d.x * d.y), 10);
 *   alert('You can currently see ' + visible_area + ' % of the document.');
 *
 * The function @{function:JX.$V} provides convenience construction of common
 * vectors.
