hmm.. I am not sure if this would improve situation or make situation
even more ugly, but maybe #origin:corner: could figure out how to
create rectangle from given parameters that satisfies:
new_origin x <= new_corner x
new_origin y <= new_corner y
in other words, resulting rectangle may have different origin and
corner than one supplied to #origin:corner:
