I'd like to use this with Connectors; I'll take a look at it. I think 
ideally there'd be some kind of automatically-appearing widget 
(scroll bar(s), etc.) that would give the user some kind of 
indication that there were morphs outside the visible area.
Maybe a little icon could be drawn in the corners (in a subclass, of 
course) indicating the off-screen presence of things. I'll look at it 
when I have some free cycles (I actually have a consulting gig now 
and am trying to beat a very close deadline).
