I understand - after reading the feedback on 
http://ppenz.blogspot.com/2008/07/url-navigator-improvements.html (48 replies 
so far) I hope that now I've a clearer pictures about the pros and cons.

I don't want want to go in detail too much as I must do some coding first to 
be really sure that it works, but I'm sure to 90 % that I've found an approach 
which you (and hopefully a lot of other people) will like. This approach won't 
need an explicit up-button and won't add any clutter.

Please give me some days until I've time again for coding :-)

Yes you are right, the comparison is not valid. I got your point and it seems 
you are not alone with this opinion -> you'll get a nice solution for this in 
a few days :-)
