Any thoughts on creating a new class, similar to a Matrix, which would
deal with items which are not Cells?  It wouldn't have all the interaction
functionality of Matrix, but would handle such things as allocating
rows and columns of cells, resizing the resulting frame (assume this is
a View subclass), and managing the prototype "cell" from which the matrix
would be built.
I'm having to do something like that to create my "browser", similar
to the Directory Browser, and it seems to have some general utility.

Comments?
