But what you marked up (in your example) looked more like wanting to be
marked up as row/cell. AFAICS you marked up cells as columns. The
"grid-col"s contained text and use elements; they are compartments /
cells, not columns. Instead, in grids like your example, groups of cells
automatically form columns.

I don't know what you mean here.

I think I'd prefer s.th. simple, like
<grid>
<row>
<cell><rect.../></cell>
<cell><rect.../></cell>
</row>
<row>
<cell><rect.../></cell>
<cell><rect.../></cell>
</row>
</grid>
<grid>
<col>
<cell><rect.../></cell>
<cell><rect.../></cell>
</col>
<col>
<cell><rect.../></cell>
<cell><rect.../></cell>
</col>
</grid>
(naming: "row" or "grid-row", "col" or "grid-col", "cell" or "grid-cell")
plus span, perhaps plus s.th. like 'draggable="true"' and 'flow="true"',
to allow for repositioning of UI elements and groups (eg rows), as in
webDraw etc

Looking at GUI toolkits is probably helpful. XUL etc etc.
