I like it as a means of getting GL to run, but not as a permanent 
solution: a), it's bound to make for interpolation errors at times 
(e.g.: you show the same view in two windows side-by-side. Then there 
are LOTS of coordsys/parent pairs which have the same pair of keys-- but 
then the parents' parents (the two windows) are different, which the 
kludge ignores. And b), I don't buy into it being more efficient: it 
creates one object per coordsys, which is precisely what I'm trying to 
avoid in AWT. This is a place where I would like to see some serious 
benchmarks first before changing anything ;-)
