First, as soon as you use a layout panel, it adds a div to the document's body, using it as a ruler to measure centimeters in pixels (this is the very first div here, moved out of view using top:-20cm).

Then, each layout panel is a div, containing another ruler to measure EMs and EXs (it has to be repeated for each panel because it depends on the font-size applied locally or inherited).

Then, each child of layout panel lives in its own div (I don't remember the rationale for this, but it had to be done so it works in all browsers and allows some kinds of styling –borders and margins–).

So here, you have the CM rule, followed by the RootLayoutPanel, containing its own ruler and a child. That child in turns is a layout panel, with its own ruler and a single child.
