-== Canvas Groups/Layers {{Done}} ==
-The layer/grouping feature we talked about will definitely be useful once the canvas is being used for such displays, because these "layers" can usually be toggled individually - so group sorting to disable hierarchies of drawable nodes, sounds like the way to go.
-Fortunately, with the canvas system, it will be possible to reuse the same code for GUI dialog widgets AND instruments, so there will be less duplicate code.
-The only thing that's required for different aircraft or different dialogs is exposing some form of "style" helper, so that symbols/colors/fonts can be customized for different needs and instruments.
-If that could be made to work, people could easily instantiate a new MFD gauge (or dialog!) and just customize it according to their needs, which will be great.
