I know off the top that what we had discussed previously regarding the
Panels is that they would use the main app corona, but place the items
in off screen coordinates. Another big blocker to any of this is the
fact that form factors currently reside in Corona, not in the views
themselves (or as Aaron had intimated to me, some grouping class he
had been envisioning).
