Recreateall does actually recreate the layers in Netscape.  And the
function that is used, createElement, could probaly use some more optimization.

A lot of it could just be a Netscape memory allocation thing, too.  But, I
see several places that the dynlayer can be fixed so that the creation
will speed up.  Hopefully I fix some of these early next week and post
them.  I haven't really tested my update to much, but hopefully
someone will find some optimizations as well.
