Yep, xwt.theme.edit sounds reasonable, as long as it preapplies 
xwt.theme.text.

I have seen such effects on a Windows machine, where if a label is too 
small for the text it contains, it scrolls. Can we have some kind of 
scrollpane in xwt.theme that does not have any scrollbars in it? Not 
just hidden, but non-existent. This would mean the extra resources 
would only be one box (for the absolute movement).

I say we handle that a bit later. For now, just have it without 
scrollpane around it. But I think a lightweight scrollpane would do the 
trick.

Sounds right.
