I had some success with echoing to /dev/label from the
plumber, but timing seems to be an issue. If I don't bind
/dev/null /dev/label, I end up with winwatch showing "abaco".
If I do, I get the web page name in winwatch for new windows
but not when I open a new link within a window.

Perhaps I just need to think harder about how to do this
with rc. I'm certainly not opposed to that approach. Any
suggestions along these lines will be greatly appreciated
as well.
