Yes, exactly.

The rack property you are mentioning is a remnant of a quick hack I
tried (and had no quick success). The right way (tm) to do it isn't yet
implemented, but there's some good news. This feature is the next on
the project's roadmap, its draft name is "2D maps". Let me release
0.16.0 in a few days and soon after that I will be able to present the
new concept on the list. Stay tuned.
