I agree with the templates idea, a case where you have forms provided to you or you create
one and then need to fill it in, to save the user time.
I am not sure about overlays, but I have built a component set based off of the
ITextComponent class that uses the PdfContentByte more extensivly. I have color, shape,
line, style, text, column and image components all based off the ItextComponent but using
direct content for everything, which comes in handy when you want more control over where
and how things are displayed. I would like to commit the stuff I have and contribute it,
but I have not yet gotten a response on my contributors agreement. Anyways I vote for such
functionality if it has not been already started in the back ground and will be glad to
contribute what I have once I can if norman.richards thinks its a good idea.
