	Yup.  
	
	It turns out to be pretty hard to create SCROLLABLE_PANELS
	with devGUIDE since devGUIDE doesn't know about them ...

	I'm using them along with a bunch of textitems to build 
	a poor man's spreadsheet "object" in XView (front end to
	a database).  Although startup time is a bit long,
	this seems to work out pretty well. 

	But I'd wish there was a *real* XView spreadsheet object though...

	(Gotcha: If a user joins previously split view 0 
	to view 1 of a SCROLLABLE_PANEL, you'll core dump...)
