Matt,
  I have tried using both a homemade View, with the VSPRITE flag set in the
ViewPort (or was it View?) structure.  I have also tried using the WORKBENCH
screen, which also has the VSPRITE flag set (yes, I checked, and even forced 
it), and neither of these attacks yielded success.  Mitsu is conveying rumors
that the word may be *not* to use VSprites, but I haven't confirmed this yet.
I'd be happy to send you my code if you wanna take a gander...  :-)
