I adopted the geometry format `((left . (+ XOFFSET)) (top . (+
YOFFSET)) (width . WIDTH) (height . HEIGHT))' because I thought a
simple format like `(XOFFSET YOFFSET WIDTH HEIGHT)' might make Lisp
codes that use this primitive more cryptic (`caddr' or `nth 2' for
getting the WIDTH part).  On second thought, the `pcase' macro could
remedy this.  So the simple format might be better.
