Yes it would be sad, and since this is not my code I feel a bit guilty
to say this, but let's face it: there are some browsers where it's nearly
impossible
to make the expansion/contraction work well.  And I really like the speed
improvement.

As for the other reason to keep the current left frame (to compare dbs),
the easy solution is to open 2 browser windows.

But maybe there are other reasons.
