They could be used, but, for our case, I dont like their xml output "{3,2}" 
they provide. More over if we are to provide such a type on the GetGeometries 
we'll have the problem of a CLAM dependency on the canvas. It's better to 
provide C++ standard structures. struct Geometry { float x,y,w,h;}; or even 
struct Geometry { std::string position, size; }; The adapter will do the 
mapping.
