// Features:
// Tracks currently focused component which receives all input
// Event loop is external as opposed to cursive-rs
// Calls render on the component and translates screen coords to local component coords
//
// TODO:
// Q: where is the Application state stored? do we store it into an external static var?
// A: probably makes sense to initialize the editor into a `static Lazy<>` global var.
//
// Q: how do we composit nested structures? There should be sub-components/views
//
// Each component declares it's own size constraints and gets fitted based on it's parent.
// Q: how does this work with popups?
// cursive does compositor.screen_mut().add_layer_at(pos::absolute(x, y), <component>)

// Child views are something each view needs to handle on it's own for now, positioning and sizing

//    // Cursive solves this by allowing to return a special result on process_event
//    // that's either Ignore | Consumed(Opt<C>) where C: fn (Compositor) -> ()

//    // TODO: solve popup focus: we want to push autocomplete popups on top of the current layer
//    // but retain the focus where it was. The popup will also need to update as we type into the
//    // textarea. It should also capture certain input, such as tab presses etc
//    //
//    // 1) This could be faked by the top layer pushing down edits into the previous layer.
//    // 2) Alternatively,
