Thanks Karl!

I know.  I agree... it might break some pages that used to work, so it 
probably should get uncommented again right away. 
It's like a working demo, which is now there for posterity in version 
control with a unique hash and timestamp, so it will be downloadable even 
when we supercede it with more commits.  Maybe another way 
of accomplishing this would have been to fork the edbrowse code so that it 
is sitting under kcarhart instead of CMB, commit the bundle of changes and 
say "would you please compile this in a side folder marked 'experiment' 
and try it out?  If I do these couple of weird things that are way out on 
a limb, as well as these other ten bits of implementation that I can 
justify, we can get this whole round trip where several moving parts of 
the program work together and a potentially common page behavior works 
which doesn't otherwise."  It's food for thought, in the form of a 
compileable codebase rather than just describing.  It kind of plays on the 
lovely fact that edbrowse is so light, you can copy around the entire 
thing just to illustrate a point, and it doesn't take prohibitive time to 
compile or download.
