Portal to move to WLS, but theoretically it should be possible to make any
app one page (more or less using the page as you'd use a template, just to
provide a frame [in the non-technical sense] for everything else to run
on). I don't know what the performance implications of this are for large
apps (never having made a large app this way--I should emphasize that I
don't know it's bad; it's just that I don't know it isn't bad), but 0
full-page refreshes=mondo desktop app feel.
