I will do so, as well as a bug against Interface Builder for 
suppressing geometry warnings on platform(s) that support overlapping 
views.

One further clarification, is the "top" view for drawing always the 
"top" view for event handling, especially with regards to layered/non-
layered? How does -[NSView hitTest:] behave when multiple subviews are 
under a given point?
