I had a change set somewhere that would swap out the Display for the  
host window that was part of the Project's information.

Thus you could create a host window for a project, when you jumped to  
the project then everything was drawn to that project's window.
At the time, and I think today, when you switch between projects, the  
existing project is "hibernated" and morphics aren't stepped.
Switching between projects invokes lots of things.

This was deemed clever, but not what should happen. At the time we  
did setup Tweak projects which has Display as a instance variable to  
work
with host windows, but there was a lack of interest.
