["Josiah Ritchie" <josiah ritchie gmail com>]

Like I said, there is something in the works to address those

If you are interested on hacking on this, there was a browse plugin
back in the 0.10.x series (I think), but it was not maintained. If you
poke around, I'm sure you could find it and revive it.
