Perspective: Comparing maintains the browser header bar, but changes to show two side-by-side Concept Details panels, with a full-width Search panel below them.

When invoked with a concept already in the Perspective: Full Concept Details panel, the focus concept will be preserved in both Perspective: Comparing Concept Details panels.

The relative sizes of the three panels can be adjusted by pressing and dragging their grey border bars.

The two Concept Details context tabs can now be used to independently select alternative versions from the concept history, so that they can be compared side-by-side.
