Basically I wanted to display a window which modifies "graphically"
another window. Under graphically I mean for example zooming of some
parts of the window or change colors and so on and also to preserve
the funcionality of the original window.
For example, if the Proxy Window displays a part of the original
Window (on which there is a button) on the Proxy Window we still can
use the "zoomed" button as it were the original one.

I hope I've mad myself clear ;-)
