   Haphaestus's UI will be spread across 4 components:

   * "Haphaestus" itself will include a tree-history UI, in a seperate mode from page rendering. As well as thin headers/footers for page metadata.
   * "Bureaucromancy" will render webforms to menus.
   * "Hearth" will be some browser-chrome at the root of that tree-history. Also responds to record/red button to bookmark the current page.
   * "TVle" it's packaged alongside viewers for other common resource types.

   UI mockups desired, especially in HTML!

     What's the design brief for Hearth?

     Most crucially for the browser to function it needs to offer is an addressbar. Also a link to a configuration form!

     The biggest feature it needs to offer is a bookmarking. Also it'd be very appropriate on a TV to have a builtin feedreader!

     I like "most frequently encountered unvisited links" as a personalized recommendations hueristic.

     You can incorporate history, don't need to.

     A griddy UI would be easiest to navigate. Text entry should be avoided.

     P.S. I've got a solid idea how I'd want to design Haphaestus's history UI...

     P.P.S. If anyone wants to toy with TV remote input & hooking them up to images, video, maps, text, filesystems, etc... Please do! And inform me so I can package them together as "TVle"!
