(Let me know if I should implement the following ideas, or if they suck :)

Besides the already-discussed navigation buffer, IMO eww should create a
new buffer on demand when the user asks to see the HTML source.
Probably `v' would be the right command for that.

For accessibility (e.g. if the HTML is completely garbled or if the user
is unable to read it), it would be very nice to pop up a buffer with
just the list of anchors, where up/down are bound to step through the
list and RET browses the anchor.
