How bout: (little enhancements)

	-Allow the Font pointer in the NewWindow structure to be NULL, in which
	 case the Workbench Screen's Font is used (or system default if there
	 is no workbench screen)

	-Better error recovery when the SCREEN size somebody specifies is
	 illegal (for instance, width not a multiple of 16).  As in, don't
	 crash.

	-Better error recovery from SizeWindow() and MoveWindow() .. As in
	 don't crash if the spec is out of bounds.

	-A 'depth' parameter for windows.  All this would do is inform the
	 layers routines how many bitmap planes are to be used for 
	 SMART_REFRESH and SUPERBITMAP windows.  Everything else is already
	 taken care of by the rp_Mask field in the rastport.  It would also
	 be nice to be able to specify which bit planes are to be used, but
	 that isn't a "minor" addition.

	String Gadgets:  I was unable to construct a string gadget of length
	and cursor box of width 1 (character) such that when the user types
	a character the box does not scroll to the right (goes blank).  Can
	anybody tell me how to do that? or is it a bug in the string gadget.
