request: let us cast the starting coords for xbmcgui.controlimage as negative numbers.
please! pretty, pretty please add this feature! i'm begging you!
i know it will be very crazy difficult to write. i know you're all shaking your heads and saying, no, no, that's impossible....
but it would be so helpful to me! i have no other argument (and that's not a good one), but i am emphatic, anyway! that's gotta be worth something!
currently we can draw pictures starting off the screen to the right and bottom (that is, positive numbers larger than the screen's width and height), but if you give it any negative numbers for x and y, it just doesn't draw the picture at all (whereas, i want it to draw the pixels that would be on-screen).
that's all. just...begging. that's all.

(oh, and getfocus, too. and emulating = false in xbmcgui. but all of those are secondary! negative-value off-screen coords first!
