I don't follow the meaning of that text.  For instance, "rewriting the
page into the form that is then ultimately displayed..."  Could you
explain what sort of rewrite you mean?

The JS code I propose would indeed change the page -- but only in a
single detail, the URL for klipse.js.  That change hardly qualifies
as "rewriting".  So what "rewriting" is it?
