Just to motivate the browser example: we did try to find a different example 
but it's not so easy. If you want an application example, you need to explain 
the application and its' needs. The advantage of the browser is that you do not 
need to explain it. Also the browser has all the elements that you want to show 
in a simple example, including the reuse of models. Moreover this is without 
needing to provide (and explain) a bunch of application-specific code. 

If you have an example that shows the same things than what we have now, taking 
into account the above requirements, and ending up at approx the same number of 
pages I would be most happy to write it up!
