Of medium importance. I've been tricked by it myself -- clicking on a 
link to find myself just jumped up the same page a bit, which is 
disorientating. But if it's going to take you longer than an hour, I'd 
say leave it for the moment, and I'll just open a ticket on it so it 
stays on the radar.

Cheers,
Martin
