The UA window should be a 3-space viewport, with the default 2D plane being the view plane bounded by the corners of the window. Any object could have a clickable map, with either two or three dimensions. The clickable area is projected onto the view plane, and changes with viewpoint. Any 2D object can be translated into 3-space, so you should be able to hang a clickable 2D image on a 3D object without combining the two into a single file. For that matter, a web document should be able to place objects in 3-space, then map parts of the document onto the objects. The entire GUI should be 3-space, with the 'desktop' just another virtual object. David Perrell
