First we have defined an \marginstuff {overlay}
{Just a test in a margin that could be multiple lines.}.
This overlay can be attached to some overlay layer, like, in our
case, the page. We define four small circles. These are drawn
as soon as the page overlay is typeset. Because they are located
in the background, they don't cover the text, while the lines do.
The previous paragraph was typeset by saying:
