If this is desirable, everything is ok. I thought it was a waste of space
(in the browser widget) to display the navigation panels (html) which is
redundant since the user can always navigate through his documents via XWiki
Navigator (the tree view inside eclipse). Anyway, I now realized that it
might not allow the user to see if his markup affects the navigation panel.

Better yet, we might provide both views in the view area using a toggle
button, so that user might switch to print view (without navigation panels
in the page) if he so desires. will this be ok ?

WDYT?

This clears up a lot of things, thanks a lot :-)
