An overview is definitely what is needed there, yes.
These concepts aren't module-specific, they are all core, and I think
one of the problems we are having is that they are not linked together in
one place quite right. Despite LibGII being separate, I think we
should subsume it under the LibGGI doc tree and just explicitly mention
that a LibGII input need not have a visual or even LibGGI to work, so we can
tree things this way:
GGI visual
display targets (opvis) overview
renderers (opdraw, opcolor) overview
GII input, filter overview
extensions overview
Helpers
Wrappers
...we would of course make links into lists of existing displays,
renderers, inputs, extensions jump forward to later chapters rather than
being right there in Chapter 2 e.g. "A list of existing display
targets is in <link>this section</link>".
It's perplexing, because the GGI project isn't really a tree structure :-)
