Yeah. Anyone who's used early versions of Rebirth will attest to
that! The only GUI controls which work with a mouse are sliders, and
even they're tedious.
I didn't mention it (slaps head) but I intend to do all control with a
remote. The screen will be display-only. No interaction via the
Ipaq's controls or touchscreen.
I want to preserve screen real estate for big graphics so I can read
it from across the room.

HTML's a cheap whore. Treating her with respect is possible,
and even preferable, because once upon a time she was a
beautiful and virginal format, but you shouldn't expect too
much of her at this point."
