Saving the page location as an ANT URL leaves off the # and everything 
after it, which is probably intentional. Saving the link object as an 
ANT URL does save the whole link.

For the first test (thumbnail index) the time is around 6.7s (as 
opposed to 29.1s for a full height window); for the second test (forum 
post) the time is around 5.6s. There were small variations between 
runs.

Without the on-page link test 1 is about 2s faster and test 2 very 
slightly faster. Interestingly, if I drag the same URL with an on-page 
link a second time it is ignored but without the on-page link it is 
processed.

I don't want a "user experience" - I just want stuff that works.
