This is why I propsed once a hidden java applet in a frame that calls 
some url periodically and takes action based on the information it gets.
Allowing you to change information on that page without refreshing it.

I remember getting flamed on that one. :)

Things like this are fine, but with us moving towards a more official pre-
release and stability, it would help if everyone would go through the code and 
fix any inconsistencies like this _now_, so that things can be pretty solid 
through the beta/pre-release process.
