Thanks, I've been trawling the bugzilla for issues,
but hadn't seen this one!

I have to say, I'd consider this to be a short term solution to
browse *mentality* vs spatial... but hopefully in terms of development
low hanging fruit.

The Map/Tree concepts may be better suited in the long run to
help people like me who need to think in browser mode sometimes.
