/*======================================================================
 *  History
 *
 *  This is a singleton that keeps track of undoable user actions and 
 *  performs undos and redos in response to the browser's Back and 
 *  Forward buttons.
 *
 *  Call addAction(action) to register an undoable user action. action
 *  must have 4 fields:
 *
 *      perform: an argument-less function that carries out the action
 *      undo:    an argument-less function that undos the action
 *      label:   a short, user-friendly string describing the action
 *      uiLayer: the UI layer on which the action takes place
 *
 *  By default, the history keeps track of upto 10 actions. You can 
 *  configure this behavior by setting 
 *      SimileAjax.History.maxHistoryLength
 *  to a different number.
 *
 *  An iframe is inserted into the document's body element to track 
 *  onload events.
