The basic functionality of drawing controls/widgets on the designer surface with 
grab handles, resizing, etc.

There is a commercial component for Delphi that I've used for some time that has 
this functionality, but I am researching the feasibility of doing my project in 
Lazarus which needs to be a mini-ide in itself.

That is the functionality I was looking for.
