Ah, I understand now.  I hope that we now both understand that we
understand that... :-)

Yes, I think this is just another reason (as well as digitization and
glyph positioning reasons) for providing whole glyphs rather than bits
and pieces.  Hey ho, back to the drawing board...

I think I can still salvage the arrow-building kit, it's just that
more of the glyphs will be directly accessable.
