I guess it might be best to implement a 'plain divs' renderer for
OpenLayers.Layer.Vector with support for limited (straight line only)
geometries. Anyone tried this before ?

realize this was done originally for the whole SVG/VML thing but now
with iecanvas or svgweb who gives a crap about VML (many of us don't
even give a crap if it runs in IE if they want to continue being non
conformant (or excluding Canvas to be "conformant"). btw we're doing
our drawing with Canvas (we like SVG but Gecko's implementation is not
that great: slow and no inline <svg> tag without xml file type)</font><br>
