Results of Searches a floating in a void?

When I ran a search and clicked on one of the results of the search, I found the node I wanted, alright, but it was as if it were floating in a void. There was no way to tell if there were any replies or what category it was in, nor was there any way to reply to that node.

I had really wanted to reply to it, or post a related question, but this makes it really hard. Perhaps improved functionality is in order?

(Also, if I try to go back to the search results, they've already expired, which makes checking out multiple results rather difficult.)

    I also find it hard to find the context of a node. I know that down at the bottom of some of the nodes, it says "return to meditations" or "return to obfuscation". But that seems a bit in the wrong place.
