I think the biggest challenge is being limited to a single window. A
tablet IDE would need to be in a group that could be copied to the
stack, and shown/hidden as needed. Doable, but a lot of work, with a
lot of limitations. Fun, though, for someone with enough time on their
hands.

You've just inspired me:
While a Ziplock bag won't allow enough airflow to the CPU, at the next
RevLive conference I'll bring a small Atom system housed in a shoe box.
Maybe I'll run my presentation from it.
