Except for the part where the browser becomes unreactive while this foreign
viewer is trying to load its data (maybe crashing the whole thing). I think
it's simpler and quicker to have the dedicated application come up.

Anyway, my point isn't really to argue over this preference, but to explain
why it's nice to have the plugin separate -- it makes it an option.
