I think you are putting too much weight on vanishing view and
the cell-box stuff and that's causing many of our differences here
(such as the statful VobScene etc).

What needs to be done is to see what types of linebreaking needs we have
and create a corresponding class hierarchy. Vanishing is *just one view*
among  many.
