Potential problem with ISMAP

I'm not sure if OmniWeb will be supporting html ISMAP (I do hope so) but 
if it does I've spotted a potential problem that I'm not too sure how to 
resolve.  

Basically, in X land, X,Y coordinates for a graphical image start with 
0,0 in the upper left hand corner.  In NeXTSTEP land it starts in the 
lower left hand corner.  If you create a ISMAP based on NeXTSTEP 
co-ordinates, than I assume no X based viewer such as Mosaic will be able 
to correctly map locations...

Just something to think about,
Scott
