[R] Key for custom lattice panel function

Hi all,
I've created a custom lattice panel function for levelplot - instead of
representing z by colour, it plot circles with radius proportional to z
(in the style of the map plots of Jacques Bertin). I'm happy to email
an example graph to anyone interested.
The problem is now to create a key for the plot. This is difficult
because all of the other lattice plots convey information through point
colour, shape, and texture, not point size. For this reason (and having
looked at the code) I don't think I can shoehorn $key or $colorkey to
produce the type of key that I want.
I'm using grid.circles() with native units that have been scaled in the
same way as in panel.levelplot.
Can anyone offer any suggestions as to how to create this key?
Hadley
