Yes, the 2nd/3rd items sound like they cover important functionality
which ADF/FUI provides (albeit limited to MS www clients [for now?]).
Thanks to Clark for the info.

Next question for anyone is "What does it require from the page itself?"
I.e. does it need that the page include specific tags, or to be hosted
by an MS www server, for example. And, are those particular tags also
Microsoft-specific extensions to html?
