Yes, in 5.5 you were manipulating the actual window you were editing. 
So controls would animate, etc., but you couldn't draw order badges on
top, or reliably draw selection rings and handles, nor could there be a
surrounding pasteboard area for putting off-window controls and
toolbars, etc.  And that technique won't help us embed controls into a
grid control either.

Best,
