  what I understand from your mail is that we can make a box (the
little rectangle with a little text in the upper left corner) to bind
to a box or a box with scrollbars in the case the contents is too big?
if so, I think a compound widget, one that is always a box with a
scrollbox inside and we could enable the scrollbars on demand
(contents size). what do you think?

  and don't cc me, thanks.
