Navigate to another page from revLet?

[Joe F.]

I haven't had time to play with revlets much, but this seems like too  
much of a glaring omission to be true.
Isn't it possible to get the host browser name (or window element) and  
send it something (like a URL)?

Another approach that "ought to work" is the bookmarklet scheme  
"javascript:blahblahblah".
