We could add default expandos for offsetLeft/offsetTop, but that's all they would be. The default would be 0 and if scripts set them they will be set (similar to style) but they will have no meaning.

work has begun on integrating the cssom

Has there been any progress on this? I'm using jsdom to run some tests on handsontable and they're failing because elem.offsetLeft is null.

I think there's much better CSS support now but we haven't used it to implement offsetLeft and offsetTop. @chad3814 might have more insight (he did the CSS stuff).

Looking at the spec it seems extremely unlikely jsdom has the infrastructure to support implementing this. Things like "return the x-coordinate of the left border edge of the first CSS layout box associated with the element, relative to the initial containing block origin" are not at all something we're prepared to deal with.

OK I'll just work around it in the handsontable source code.
