Note that there are often a site nav (via some over done bar), and a page nav set of links, I'd like to be able to undisplay both, so that I can skip to the content, others, however, would not like this so please make it an option and add a keybinding so it's not global.

Streaming audio through command line players like mocp. You'd need to add flash and "livevine" (or similar), support for most sites. Out of curiosity, what site(s) are you thinking of? I prefer to play after downloading, if you find that troublesome or impossible for your use case, as might occur for such things as internet radio, then consider doing "curl --silent URL | ffplay - " or similar (or try looking into an icecast (or similar), client). > 4.

I agree, but it would be better if the paragraph that was cut could be scrolled to the top as a whole (perhaps with an > where you left off). EXAMPLE: ---------------------- I have a dog. See the dog. See it eat. Funny, funny -----Press space------ SPACE ---------------------- See the dog. See it eat.
