Ben,
I must say that is a pretty interesting idea. =)
In my case, on the top of the animation, I will also draw lines (using the
OS drawing functions) that will change (think of a clock's hand for an
example of what I am trying to say =). I do not know if I would really be
better off doing your approach in this case. =(
