+There are several unresolved issues with 
+this type of user interface.
+For instance, allowing the user to have several
+separate "focused nodes" at the same time
+is necessary to allow linking; there are several
+possibilities but the choice is important.
+Also, the buoy algorithms need more work:
+if there are two buoys simultaneously showing
+regions of a document close to each other, they
+should probably be combined. Also, if anchors are
+very close or coincide, the buoys should be
+pushed away from each other.
