Actually, I have an idea for tying in glyph displays with subwindows,
and if that works, well then we'll have our proverbial cake and eat it
too. It'll take a couple of weeks to determine if it's feasable or
not, (mostly because I can't devote much time to XEmacs at the
moment... *sigh*)

I guess that means I'm adopting subwindows, but I ain't promising a
delivery date... Also, MULE related stuff will come first.
