There used to be a distinction between "untyped" units (represented by types such as nsIntPoint, nsIntRect, etc.) and "unknown" units (represented by types such as gfx::IntPoint, gfx::IntRect, etc.).

With bug 1155621, bug 1220898, and bug 1220923, the former have all been made typedefs for the latter, so the distinction has been eliminated.

We should update places is in the code that still use distinct terminology (like LayerPixel::ToUntyped vs. LayerPixel::ToUnknown) to use a single term. I suggest "Unknown", as the actual types after unwrapping typedefs are XXX<UnknownUnits>.
Depends on: 1155621, 1220898, 1220923

I have a slight preference for Untyped over Unknown, but it's not a big deal

The last patch rounds out the picture by removing the ToUnknown() and FromUnknown() methods defined by the pixel types (where you needed one for each (pixel type, quantity type) pair) in favour of the ToUnknownXXX() and FromUnknownXXX() methods defined by the quantity types (where you just need one for each quantity type).

I chose "Unknown" because the types of these quantities are things like RectTyped<UnknownUnits> and I wanted to be consistent with that. If you'd like to rename UnknownUnits to UntypedUnits (and the methods accordingly), I'm OK with that.

Nah, don't worry, not worth your time and energy :)
