Hmm... for my bedside controller, I want something that is purpose-built, -
or at least has a default view that is purpose built.

The way I envisage it working, I don't think speed will be too much of an
issue... - I won't be refreshing the page constantly, - the only thing
updating will be the clock display, and I "may" do that as the
screensaver... i.e. normally it just shows a digital clock ticking away, as
soon as I screen-press, the clock screensaver goes away to be replaced
by.... ?? this is the bit I'm trying to design... - it must still have the
clock display visible, but will now have controls etc. as well...
