Overall the tree looks good, but how do I capture the URL for the current
page?  (I was able to do it with right mouse on the right pane, open in new
window/tab).  However, is there a way to get the address bar to point to the
right frame instead of the left pane so that the current URL is immediately
accessible?  My major objection to frames is that I can't see and grab the
current URL...
