Description If an iframe-based overlay is open, and the user navigates via a GET request, update the "#" part of the parent URL to encode the parameters of the overlay and the new URL.

Then for a new top level page load, in our JavaScript automatically open up an overlay based on those same parameters.

The idea is that navigations in an overlay, and choice of overlay, should be bookmarkable etc.

Consider security. For example, this should probably only work for internal URLs.
