Very nice! And while not shown in Jim's demo, the new 'Recency' mode in the
Navigator would not be limited to just the Headings as shown. 

The navigation can be between cursor position of other types acted upon while
working.  E.g. you could drop 'Reminder's or 'Bookmark's into the mix and move
between them efficiently.

And eliminating the contextual pop-up of the 'Navigation toolbar' will improve
a long present UX annoyance.
