Mark:

2.  My three lines of code in the Leopard were the only ones that I have
ever written.  So, I may easily have made a mistake.

3.  Do you think that most people are doing screen-to-screen navigation on
the Leopard using direct ECS control.  I would imagine that if you used
Ocelot/Leopard code to control navigation that it would be a bit quicker and
give the user a crisper response.  On the other hand, if you can't mix the
two modes of navigation, then, it is probably just another novel recipe for
disaster.  What do you think that most ECS Leopard users are doing on this
issue?
