I interpreted this to mean that the base grid class would not be part
of the interface presented to the user either. Is this correct?

Cus the way Robert saw it was that the transport should be the factory
for the grid, and the user will see the grid.  The transport, which is
the factory for the grid, is fed to the object.

But the way I saw it was that the transport should be created by the
factory and so the user should see no grid at all.  The factory
feeds the transport to the object.

Have I missed the point?  More importantly, have you made the code win?
