I have two thoughts pulling in different directions:
* Though tools need to have some way to announce their presence in the
image, users should also have a way to customize what is shown where.
* KISS, and get on with everything else there is to do.
If anyone has something better than the current scheme, you're welcome.
I consider the current situation almost good enough, certainly good
enough to proceed pulling out wires.
