Design notes

Capturing Mosaic functionality

By representing link-tracking behavior as a command/selection binding, WebRunner Sample captures backward and forward functionality of Mosaic in the Document framework. For example, in a traditional browser, the user clicks a button to go back to the previous page in a document. WebRunner Sample takes advantage of the Undo command provided in the CommonPoint application system to support this functionality.

Operating on an entire model selection

In WebRunner Sample, the command operates on the entire model. As a result, there's no need to write a separate selection because TModelSelection yields a TModelReference that can give the command direct access to the TWebModel.
