Signed Scripts to allow one to read data from general web pages
  • and also to make control bar always on top and narrow
Ability to "capture" events and either
  • take a snapshot of their properties to send to nonmaster
  • choose whether or not to accept default action (nonmaster must use cloneurl button to play around with page, most mouse clicks ignored on shared page)
Most important events are CLICK CHANGE but potentially others (MOUSEOVER MOUSEOUT ONLOAD ONUNLOAD)
