== History Pages Preview ==
When a user visits a site for the first time they usually don't remember the address or even the name of the site.  Usually, a web page is most memorable based on its content.  The current organization of history is lacking, in that it only shows the name of each page visted.  A small preview of each page could give the user more than enough information to find the page they're looking for.
* Standard history organization is kept.
* On a single-click (or function key + click) the page is shown as a thumbnail in a smaller window.
* Pages are rendered (into thumbnails) while viewing history or when each page is visted and being stored into history.
