I've needed to have DynLayers with a postion set to Fixed in dynapi2,
so this would solve it. Netscape 4 doesn't support it, but we could
simulate it by listening to onscroll to maintain the position.

If you were to call setPosition('relative'), then it wouldn't be needed
to try to guess what top/left should be, whatever x/y would be.
