nothing stops these doing that - but they don't use the gadget code. dropshadow
is a module - it draws shadows on the desktop - flame is the same. they can
display anywhere. they don't use the gadget handling code. this is all possible
- but i don't see the point of making some easy auto-layout infrastructure for
it all. gadcon was about bringing the myriad of gadgets under stricter control
where they can auto-layout better. the majority of gadgets want/need that. a
few don't. these few can place themselves as they like. it's not impossible -
it just is more manual/different.
