The original design had the clipboard at the top-left of the Frame,
http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Human_Interface_Guidelines/The_Laptop_Experience/The_Frame#The_Frame

arranged temporally in a push-down stack,
http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Human_Interface_Guidelines/The_Laptop_Experience/The_Frame#Objects

At some point the designers decided to invert the placement at the
bottom-left of the Frame, and building a push-up stack, so that the next
item pushed in or popped out of the stack was from a fixed location (now
the lowest item).  This is like storage systems that dispense items at one
location by gravity.
