Display is the bitmap (Form) which represents the display.  Modifying 
the Display does change what appears on the screen.

The World is a PasteUpMorph that contains cursors and all of the 
objects beneath it.  The World does contain a Canvas, which is 
responsible for drawing the morphs onto the Display.  But the World 
is a higher-level abstraction.
