Say I have a box, e.g. \setbox\thebox=\vbox{....} with dimensions \wd
\thebox etc.
What then is the most efficient and economic (in terms of complexity
and speed) way to generate a colored background for it?
I know I can use \framed, but this I wish to avoid because it seems
overly complex for this simple task and may have side effects in
terms of alignment issues.
Is the best perhaps using a metapost graphic? and if so, what is best
MPgraphic, useMPgraphic, reuseMPgraphic, etc.?
