I am still not very convinced. The principal issue I have is that it's 
too much close to what we display for breadcrumb (like in "Main: Welcome 
to XWiki Enterprise Incubator > Dashboard"), while not the same concept.

I'd like we get more feedback on this topic before we go on with it. It 
probably means we have to decide on a strategy for the future for 
displaying the different kinds of paths inside the wiki (wiki>space>page 
path as in the proposal, and full parent/children path).

JV? Laurent?

For all the rest it's very good and I'm +1 to get started implementing 
it in XE as soon as we can.
