We could add infrastructure level elements like buttons or drop down menus that would be rendered at the container's border.

E.g. a drop down menu and a button:

┌─ A container ───────────────[...][o]┐

Possible use case is a multi-widget container. A drop down menu would select which widget to display in the container. When defined generically enough, this could be used for various purposes where the user wants to interact with the application.

This is currently blocked until we have the ability to display floating windows (#104) since a drop-down menu would utilize the functionality and until we have the ability to change layout dynamically (#67).
