I red the last message you posted you have explained it there efficiently.
My objection is that those are too many overlays that will make things 
harder not easier. There are a lot of ways to accomplish the same thing. 
For example

run time only package = gray box
run time = yellow box
design time = gray box with a gear
run time and design time = yellow box with a gear.

I don't understand the need for this but if it is there some one needs it.

Now interpreting the second post as an authoritative declaration and 
after I satisfied my insecurity of not being understood I'm going to 
stop posting any more objections I might have.
