Synopsis stddoclet: Add class name on browser status line to help tell you where you are
Category doclet:tbd

Description
Looking at the API, I wondered "How about using the name of the
class that you are looking at as the default entry in the browser status
bar?"  You know where it usually says "Document Done".

A lot of times I forget if I have gone back from the superclass
back to the component, then I have to scroll back to the top of the page
to find out.

Evaluation
Good idea for Netscape.  Does this work the same on Internet Explorer?
This would probably be done in JavaScript, as long as it degrades 
gracefully in browser versions that don't support JavaScript.

Cameron has described how to do it under "Suggestd Fix".  Let's
try it and see how natural it feels.  It might be a bit wierd.
