Oh, but I know that 'zoom' gives an element 'hasLayout', whatever that  
means. What I'm looking for is possible/potential side effects specific  
to the use of 'zoom', as opposed to other properties (height/width,  
positioning) that induce 'hasLayout'. Bruno mentions potential problems  
with line break when used with inline elements; there might be others  
out there.
