and if the user clicks a link to another part of the site, the
breadcrumb can be used to give the user his/her location within the
site... perhaps suddenly the user sees he/she is in the product
support section instead of the faq section, meaning the next time
he/she returns, he/she might actually go right into the correct
section, decreasing speed to access...
and that, IMO, is a good thing...
sort of like a de facto, context sensitive site map...
