I've already offered suggestions and criticisms very similar to Andreas'
in previous exchanges. I prefer a singleton/global becasue it just feels
better and saves some mental space when typing and reading. As for
messages like #allCallsOn:, I'd keep them in classes and delegate to
SystemNavigation _when appropriate_. Remember the suggestions I made for
refactoring class refernce browsing? That worked by letting the classes
override the message so that Plugin classes could add more searching and
cope with the way that plugin primitives are called.
