If it's generally useful but doesn't apply to all themes, then it goes
in .lib.  A hypothetical org.xwt.theme.monopoly.edit would preapply
xwt.lib.keybindings and then override the keybindings that don't
apply to that particular theme.

You can break up xwt.lib into xwt.lib.layout and xwt.lib.functions if
you like.  We're gonna play it fast-and-loose with xwt.lib and go back
later once we have some hindsight to work with.  If you think this is
the best way to go, by all means do it.

Charlie, you need to post specific examples of these mysterious
"problems" instead of just alluding to them.
