so now on the one hand there is the impression that this is legacy UI
(aka old cruft) but on the other hand I am reluctant just to drive
a bulldozer over it.
it would however be fully reasonable is only ruler type of stuff would
be dependent on rulers being displayed. even creating guides has to
be one day be decoupled (don't know how yet) from rulers being there,
to create a chance of having a clean image window and be able to
create guides.
