Layers will always be recycled on NS4, no dependency on the size or
anything.
the Layer object is still in memory, and can be simply resized seeing that
it's contents will be rewritten anyway. The layer's size is reset before the
HTML is written into it..
so glance at it again :-) (and focus on the createElement() method)
