P.S. I have not had time to change my message log window to use a
ListBox in place of an EditField.
I've experimented a bit with this, and it does seem to improve
performance quite a bit. The only problem I can tell is that it seems
impossible to wrap the contents of a cell, which is a bit of a drag
when you don't have direct control over the length of the text you are
adding (for instance, when it is a user entered value). The ellipsis
that was added recently (was it 4.5?) is very cool, but it doesn't help
if you're trying to masquerade a listbox for an editfield. Of course,
corrections are more than welcome! :)
