------- Additional Comments from Darin Adler <darin at apple.com>
I don't think we want this. We do want to perform layout, bypassing the timer,
but as a direct response to another method call that requires layout.

For example, if there's a call to render the view into a buffer, then that call
should force layout.

We should only add a call like this to API if there is no way to accomplish
this automatically, and I believe there is.
