history prototype

[Laurian]

Hello,

Furthermore, based on my toy prototype on sharing Ubiquity applied
actions [ http://laurian.posterous.com/sharing-ubiquity-commands ], I
deferred the call of Ubiquity.preview() and inserted an icon in the
page at the end of the selected range, this allowed me to "display"
several Ubiquity actions in a page.

Then by storing each command + range/xpointer with the
AnnotationService, I could enable a kind of command history: for
example when you revisit a page where you had already applied some
Ubiquity commands you will see the icons for each, awaiting re-
applying.

See demo video here:

I posted the thing here http://laurian.posterous.com/ubiquity-history
The terrible code is at http://gist.github.com/201053
[I reused Aza's icon+code from his Ubiquity mouse experiments]

Cheers,
Laurian
