When dealing with 3D transformed content, the structural container may have zero-size CSS metrics. The Apple Finger Tips sample code is a good example (see URL). For instance, in that code the #ring element has 0x0 CSS metrics and getBoundingClientRect() reports width and height to be 0 and 0. It would be great to have a functionality to get the tight bounding box of such elements to hide away the complexity of dealing with 3D maths.
