The home screen uses a custom layout manager for this, and this is probably
a situation where a custom layout manager makes sense since there isn't a
way I can think of to express such a layout with the standard classes.

And you'll need some kind of custom container anyway to get per-page
flinging like the home screen, because this is not how scroll views work.
