     I am attaching glyphs to my scrolling list items, and it works just
fine for monochrome systems.  On color systems, it demands that I supply
8-bit glyphs.  I have been using 1-bit monochrome glyphs.  Is it too much
to ask the panel package to figure out the glyph depth and copy either
one or eight planes, as appropriate?  I now have to double up my code, 
and make it create and use either 1 or 8-bit glyphs after determining
the window depth.  A real pain.  Anyone know of a workaround?
