[abuymbhl] Squish scrolling

Consider an interface which scrolls, but instead of scrolling content off the screen, content near the edge becomes distorted, squished, so the entire content always remains on screen.

The motivation was for a chess GUI on small mobile devices.  They have rectangular screens but a chess board is square.  We need piece icons that remain recognizable even if distorted.  The GUI could be portrait or landscape, so the distortion could be in either direction.  Perhaps incorporate color.  No such need for go 囲碁 with its very simple pieces.

Will players be able to see their familiar patterns despite the distortion of space?  Diagonals become curved.
