Hello Everyone,

I've been doing some thinking and came up with a
solution that I think is able to give us more speedy
layers than what we currently have. 

The solution employs a StyleManager that will enable
us to be able to change the look, feel and behavior of
DynLayers and widgets. 

With this in mind I would like to make a proposal that
we change the 7th argument in DynLayer to use the
"style" argument instead of image.

IMO background image in rarely used by developers and
could be easily changed with the use of setBgImage or
dictionary object ({}) in those rare cases. I think
the "style" argument will be used much more frequently
than bgimage.

Possible usage of styles:

// create a plain DynLayer
var l = new
DynLayer(null,0,0,10,10,null,'PlainLayer');

// creates an html container 
var l = new
DynLayer('Hello',0,0,null,null,null,'HTMLLayer');

var l = new DynLayer(null,0,0,0,0,null,'CoverLayer');

The above layers will use customize code found in the
Style object to improve the creation speed of the
layers.

What do you think? If it's a no, then I guess we'll
just have to use setStyle() and keep the image
argument.
