I can see the wisdom of this before we had the topLeft and bottomRight 
properties. You could simply parse the first two items and the last two items 
and get the same thing.

Like most languages, LiveCode provides a way to express the bounding rectangle 
of an object, as well as its location.

But it may be helpful to note that these values may be different from what 
you'll find in other languages.

For example, in JavaScript/CSS, the order of rectangle coordinates is:

  top, right, bottom, left

...but in LiveCode (and other xTalks) the order is:

  left, top, right, bottom
