you may not need anything fancy like a class for regular breadcrumbs
or these BreadcrumbsExtreme™ that you describe. i usually do simple
breadcrumbs with a simple function.

for the extreme version, just store an array of recently viewed pages
in a session variable, and parse this array when displaying each page.
