Ted,
I don’t see why this shouldn’t be shared with a larger community. There are good points for discussion that should be out in the open.
To add more spice to the soup, it is interesting to note that in native apps developers are allowed to group several items into single touchable objects, so why should websites be different?
There is a case for both, flat view and an object navigation mode, so perhaps it should be a configuration setting of sorts?
