[Cuis-dev] Rebuilding on events: Experiments in simplifying UI development in Cuis inspired by Mithril.js

[Hilaire Fernandes]

Sorry I don't have the reference at hand.  It is an accidental reading. 
But I remember it is a way of doing in the web and from my understanding 
to circumvent its inherent complexity in GUI. We don't have this legacy 
complexity.

In most WEB GUI you don't have overlapping windows. With overlapping 
windows, I fear rebuilding at each time may result in wasting a lot of 
computing. Imagine a model represented visually with several different 
visible forms (Morphs in fact), these morph embedded in more complex 
Morphs. Will it required the whole redraw ?
