Just to make it a bit more flexible though, let's also
allow for 'importing' evas objects - if possible (not sure if ewl
has this at the moment, but just in case).
But the app should be a ewl app that 'demos' ewl widgets,
in a rich, cinematic way.. with a main interface much like the
current expedite. It should not be an ecore_evas app that has
widgets embedded in evas objects though - that's interesting too,
but not the point of the exercise.
Is something like that natural to obtain with ewl and its
overlay widget?
