[sldev] Browser

[Dzonatas]

In thinking of the path of least resistance, it may be easier to have 
the browser window outside of viewer.

That would not be HTML on a prim, but it would allow the features of 
HTML to be put into a notecard or LSL string and made displayable in a 
web browser on the client.

This keeps in mind the potential to have more than one monitor where the 
notecards and such windows can be moved to another monitor.
