Pixel accuracy may be important for low-resolution displays.

And... I have certain low-resolution displays in mind. There are
keyboards with individual backlights below each key.

Maybe they could/should be treated similarily to displays with
occlusions? But we'll really need to be pixel-perfect for that.
