The last one sounds like the situation where a text object is connected to a line. When you resize or move the line, the text object gets dragged along. > I have a bias towards self-documenting code, which is why my > contribution elsewhere in this thread is of the form "this is what I'd > name the classes and variables", but that's obviously not the only way > to go.

Threads on a mailing list are useless. It would be far more useful if this somehow got turned into a documentation patch at least, if not a renaming patch. And of course the best person to do that is the one who is actually delving into that pile of code!
