Thanks, that fixed it (well, after a bit of fudging -- I had to change the
widget to be based on a Filler so that MainLoop could point to it).  I
appreciate the help.

Now, I'm going to impose a bit and ask: why'd it work?  Maybe I'm not quite
understanding what the Overlay is for.  While I'm pestering, what about
PopUpLauncher?  Is it just an abstraction of Overlay or is something else
going on?
