I just found these experiments with Tinytlf: http://guyinthechair.com/2010/11/tinytlf-updates-and-new-experiments/
Tinytlf has a concept called constraints. It seems to me that it's a really nice feature. What they did there with spline constraints is really interesting. Something like that could allow TLF containers to have interesting shapes. I'm not (yet) familiar enough with the inner workings of TLF to guess how much work it would be to implement something like that. Thoughts? Harbs
