Still a lot of work to do, I really don't want to release until I've got 
Undo/Redo working across the app, otherwise I'm afraid people will 
probably write off the application has a toy.

Not only that, but there are performance problems.  Nobody ever used the 
paint brush while they had a compile going it seems :).

Loading/Saving of files is also broken right now, this isn't much work 
to fix, but I'm guessing this is a feature users might want to have.
