Hey, Groupies-

This is from the guy who designed the Firebug JS debugger extension for 
  Firefox.  This seems like something CDF should look at.

I don't agree with many of his points, but I do think we should give 
serious thought to layouts.  Cameron's constraints work would be a good 
starting point.  I have a SMIL-like syntax that does simple layouts, and 
it would suffice for many layout schemes.  I'm happy to share it if we 
think we could get it in an SVG1.2 module.

Regards-
-Doug
