Oh I see - I think I misread... Sorry :)  But yes, I think the idea would
still be to use visited somehow.  I don't think that what is described here
would necessarily work though - would it? I mean, if the one clicked were on
the right, it wouldn't really have any visible impact (it would just grow
out of the viewable area and be clipped).  I think you would have to also
position it and lay it on a higher layer to hide it.
