Safari 8.0 does not have a title bar. With earlier version that do
have a title bar, you could command click on the title and get a
drop-down menu showing the hierarchy of the page, and let you quickly
navigate within that hierarchy. I haven't been able to find out how to
do that with Safari 8.0

I've never known about this feature until now. Perhaps Apple feels it
was not used much by the user base?

I've never heard of this before. How long has Safari supported it? I'm guessing it's gone because, as JR wrote, no one else knew about it either, and it doesn't work on Safari 7 when it full-screen mode since there is no title bar and Apple is all about full-screen these days :(

More likely, it will be marked as "works as designed". Nevertheless,
I'm reporting it with the Feedback Assistant included with the beta of
Yosemite.

I haven't got Safari 8. I still have 7 and when I check updates, it
doesn't have any. Guess I will stick with 7.
