Dojo is a lot more than just the overlib library. Of particular value is 
that it provides an events and inheritance framework that Mapbuilder has 
written from scratch.

If Mapbuilder were to be written today, we would probably build it from 
Dojo (or maybe the Google Web Toolkit), but 5 years ago when we started 
we were breaking new ground and had to invent all this functionality 
from scratch.

It would be good to migrate to Dojo, and we have discussed this, but it 
would be significant work, involving updating the entire codebase.
