I had an idea for a variation on this...

Since the Scintilla code-editing control supports code folding (collapsing a
section of the source code down to a single display line), we could have a
method-at-at-time mode of navigation where clicking on a method name in the
navigation tree would collapse all method definitions *except* the one that
was clicked.

This is similar to what Ron is asking for, but different in that the editing
window would still show the first line of all other functions (the bodies
would be collapsed).
