 Sorry if that is what it sounded like. I thought I defined quite well
what "the problem is", but apparently one selects what one wants to
read. What I said is that WinDom makes loads of unnecessary calls on
each WM_REDRAW, and that zView serviced its redraws very slow because
"the problem is that wind_set() in XaAES is slow". <-- read carefully!!!

 I dont know what the root of the problem is here? I also said that this
is fixed, XaAES now caches wind_calc() calls and is faster than N.AES on
'cache-hits'.

 Does the WinDom authors read this list?

 I think such a discussion belongs here, because it is XaAES that tries
to evolve.

 One thing is for sure; wind_calc() can not be used like in WinDom if we
want to be able to change themes without restarting the AES. So here we
can start discussing solutions....
