Experimental project

This is a sandbox project, which contains experimental code for developer use only.

This project should require Bad Judgement. It doesn't, but if it does one more bad thing it will. That said...because of the way router items and views work/dance together (if/when #357082: Pull filter value from an argument? lands we can group contextual filters by OR and that will solve much), I had need to embed views in the no results area. Those views needed to be able to send more than just the rows back to the parent view, they needed to be able to change the title, with first row token replacements, and the breadcrumb.

Voilà, a very very bad module that will eat your resources & slow your page loads (by making multiple clones of your view and even executing some of them), but will also optionally pass back a title from the child view if one is set and a breadcrumb.

Known Issues:

Views render caching does not like these area views, your mileage may vary.
