+\r
+Yes, I guess that is possible at some level.\r
+\r
+The fringe is a bitmap - we could use the leftmost vertical line of it\r
+for the outermost component, next line for the next component, ...\r
+\r
+Or perhaps use images:\r
+ - all levels of the message at this line are "good",\r
+ - some of the levels of the message at this line are "good".\r
+\r
+Or maybe display a QR code in the fringe, and you point your phone at it\r
+to find out what is going on?\r
