+	rawBox -- hack to arbitrarily add a box in andlabs to work
+	around the problem that a "group" can not have one entry in it
+	TODO: fix this so that a box is "added on demand" that is,
+	if "go.wit.com/gui/gui" sends you a 2nd thing to add to a group,
+	automatically add a box then. The problem with this, is the macos, windows and linux gtk
+	will panic on a move when an chind object is disasociated from the group
+	I haven't had time to try to debug this, so, instead, it's just probably better to always
+	add a box here. There doesn't seem to be any real issue with forcing a box to be inserted
+	into the toolkits that is "outside" the binary tree of widgets. This only means, that on
+	a destroy of the tree, this box must be checked
+
+	even that is a probably not senario however since clicking on the close box in the toolkit
+	has the operating system destroy everything in the window. it may or may not be possible
+	to control that behavior. at this time, it's "undetermined" and the best course of action
+	is to detect the window is destroyed and then remove all the toolkit information
+	from all the nodes in the binary tree
+
+	TODO: handle user killing/closing a window using the OS
