Perhaps I'm gilding the lily overmuch but it would seem very convenient to
do this rather than constructing Point objects from the event. What about
letting convertPointFromNodeToPage and convertPointFromPageToNode capable of
taking an event or a Point object?

As for it not being standardized, that's totally fine -- both personally and
in my day job, I write only against WebKit-based browsers.

Rob.
