Correct. There is one implementation there that is a combination of
DaveY's work, Will Holcomb and myself. Where it is currently weak is in
UI event handling. If you want just stuff to draw over the top your are
fine, but if you needed to have clickable buttons on screen, then it
fails miserably.

DaveY sent me another dump of the Cosm code about a month ago that
solves all of these issues. It has diverged somewhat from our code so I
started trying to integrate them again. Unfortunately the terrain work
came up in between and it is currectly sitting on my machine as an
incomplete set of work. :( We're looking to incorporate it as part of
the Xj3D work shortly due to some prototyping efforts within the X3D
spec efforts (They want to add an Overlay node and 2D nodes equivalent
to SVG/MPEG4 functionality).
