Whiteboard ZoomPad

Experiments with a zooming pad that acts like a whiteboard. It will work on all platforms from a large projection screen down to a PDA.

The two big conceits are that you can pan and zoom by dragging from the border, and that you can create yellow zoomable stick-ems by doing a tap-drag. These are really useful for grabbing, moving, saving, and organizing things on your zooming whiteboard.

I've also started adding in the ability to embed entire program objects on your whiteboard. To demo this, if you type "Hcube" and then hit the ESCAPE key, you import an interactive hypercube.
