That's true. I did't thought about that.

What I don't like about "UP" is that prev and next aren't labeled "prev" and
"next" but with the titles of the corresponding documents. So you have a
mixture of lables (named ones and generic) which is sort of iritating. What
about using the name of the "UP" document in the widget?
Or using literally "prev | up | next" (although I like the idea of knowing
what "next" will be)
