Proposed patch

The org.eclipse.draw2d.geometry package has many nice utilities for geometry calculations that doesn't necessarily need to have a SWT dependency.

It would be nice to have these separated into its own plugin without the SWT dependency so that they can be utilities on operating systems that doesn't have SWT available.

You should instead go for GEF4 Geometry (http://wiki.eclipse.org/GEF/GEF4/Geometry), which offers exactly this.
