I am familiar with your external, and look forward to checking it out 
later.  In this case, what I'm after is a way to have regions of a window 
act as substacks in themselves, kind of like if a group could be used to 
view a substack as in Gain Momentum's "viewer" objects.

I just tried this on my Mac, and the gawdawful performance of SlowDraw 
(sometimes called "QuickDraw") makes the window redraw an unbearable 
mess.  Hmmm...it looked so promising for a moment....
