On a project I'm working on now, we gave up trying to use a view hierarchy
all together.  Our main window has a single view inside a scroller.  After
that it's classic ToolBox stuff.  

I suspect that another reason for speed problems in MacApp may be due 
to heavy use of TLists everywhere.  I haven't looked into this too deeply
so I may be wrong.
