Prototype:

1) UI prototypes

[:] Token field
  [X] plain text
  [X] encapsed string
  [X] token transmutation
  [X] refactored code into separate files + object literal style

  [X] fix backspacing around edges of tokens
  [X] add icon/spinner support to tokens

  [.] | and >> token support
  [ ] caret.remove() shouldn't need to touch tokenList when pruning empties -> let triggers do it

  [X] context bar by command
  [X] anchored scrolling
  [X] host output
  [X] make outputnode tree changes reflect in DOM transparently
  [X] fix view.add mid-node insertion
  [X] auto-expand to fill view
  [ ] command history
  [ ] alt-up/down to change focus
  [ ] tabbed views
  [ ] add forking the view with tabs and hosted/nested sessions

2) Command/token autocomplete
  [X] token multi-regexp patterns
  [X] triggers system, unify with token field triggers a bit?
