+# * A plot window contains multiple panels
+# * There are 2 frames per panel
+#   * The first frame is a small 'header' frame for titles
+#   * The second frame is larger and where the data series is rendered, including
+#     axis labels
+#
+# The first panel is where the main series is rendered. Panels added later are
+# plotted below the first panel and are smaller.

+#
+# add_frame(n) adds a new frame after frame 'n'
