The notion that 0,0 at lower,left is "more traditional" is most valid for
paper pages, not for scrollable pages.  Computer displays are more often
oriented to top,left.  This may be due in part to the direction of raster
scanning, but I think that it has more to do with the notion of scrolling
where the bottom is in a sense undefined.  Let's keep 0,0 at top,left.
