Thanks Matthew! Testing r1105 of that branch, it does work well for the
one case of clicking on "Featured" or "What's New" items on the lobby
screen.

I'm surprised, though, that it was even possible to fix it for that one
case without fixing all the other cases automatically. It seems to me
that the code that calculates what elements the pathbutton should have
in a software item screen, should be the same code no matter how you
navigate to that software item screen (with that one exception I
specified of "If the item was navigated to via a
department/subsection..."). If that calculation needs to be
reimplemented for every method of navigation, contributors implementing
future methods of navigation (e.g. going from an application screen
directly to the screen for one of its add-ons, or from the History
section to the screen for one of the historic items) will be either
copying and pasting, or forgetting to implement it at all. Does that
make sense, or am I off-base?
