I was thinking about drawing a component for an app, and how to deal
with communication between the host app and the drawing component, and
dealing with undo/redo, and with giving the component toolbars etc,
when it occurred to me that the STC text control [*] solves a very
similar problem, it just provides an interface to a rich text document
model rather than a drawing document model.  All the issues that it
has to deal with are pretty much the same.  It might be a good idea to
copy its API.

Just thinking out loud I guess.  Anyway I could use something like a
drop-in figure editing component.  Maybe that's what OGL is though?
Then there's wxArt2D too, but I don't think there are py bindings for
that.  I never paid much attention to OGL because it was all aliasy.
But maybe now with the new GCDC it's gotten a facelift?
