Yeah, I'm looking into this. It's a little weird, now all my searches
show nothing.

Yes, I believe it is that call.

Seems pretty common, buttons on the left is the usual browser default,
and most people don't change defaults.

We should probably have a history list in here, too, since WebKit can
keep track of it for us easily. Maybe just as a button-menu under the
back/forward buttons?

About the web import, I don't quite know how, but I think we should
merge the two web-related features eventually. I suggest that we make
the web group view the default way of browsing from BibDesk (it's lots
more visible and obvious), then allow users to do their own scraping
using the existing import from web UI if they want to, if the scrapers
don't find anything...

Maybe the thing to do would be to have an 'create new item' action -
as a button somewhere and a web-contextual menu item, that causes the
right-side table from the web import sheet to slide in from the right
of the main screen, and lets you build a new item and add it to the
web group (or directly to the doc) without leaving the window or
opening a sheet...

What do you guys think?
