It's not even useful then, because it won't highlight pages that are 
inside a collapsed branch. And chances are that you have a *lot* of 
collapsed branches if you have 1000+ pages.

I fully agree. I hadn't followed this thread and I thought it was about 
getting something functional into beta3. As it is it is nice maybe nicer 
but still useless.

As a middle way could we at least have a parameter to hide it permanently?
