That's the idea, indeed. Moreover I'm quite sure there's been some
discussion about having a real floating layout like this.

Now I'm going to add decorations and a mouse interface - code that can
be reused at a later time anyhow.

I did not understand where the layout layer is going to go, and I did
not follow the nested stacks discussion enough to understand how the
two facts may be related. If someone could get me up to date I'd
appreciate.

Cheers,
Andrea
