        I think the issue here is newbies aren't seeing this in the docs.

        If it's put right up front in the intro, no one should run into
        it as a problem (unless they skip the docs, in which case they
        should expect to flounder)

        I think the missing bit is here:
        http://fltk.org/documentation.php/doc-1.1/basics.html#3_1
        ..that section should really cover the meaning of begin() and end().

        I'll made an STR #1718.
        http://fltk.org/str.php?L1718

        Anyone want to take a shot at what the intro docs should say
        about this? Once we have something here that seems right,
        we can add it to the STR as a suggestion, so that it gets
        taken care of.
