Hmm, I suppose the fullDrawOn: method, or maybe one of its close
cousins, might be a good place to insert the smarts.  Let's see, 
drawSubmorphsOn: looks promissing -- TransformMorph already has this
method overriden to do some clipping, but it simply isn't restrictive
about which morphs get drawn.
