Using the editor I was able to see the "browser mode" you refered to. I 
actually prefer this method " the old way " over the new "spacial view" 
mode. But I did not see a clear marking for "browser off" or such. Maybe 
I missed it, but I didn't see it. Oh well, at least now when I click on 
"start here" I get the old browser mode! Thats a good thing.
