[BAD IDEA!] Google is messing with the address bar again--new
experiment hides URL path

I've noted in the past why this is a TERRIBLE idea. Yes, URLs can
be long and messy, but they frequently provide *critical* cues that 
you're on the correct pages. Further tampering with them is an invitation
to new kinds of confusion and hack attacks.
