694 - Show Full Description/Change Log/etc in non-modal view
Description
Right now the Full Description and Change Log (and possibly other?) views are show in a modal sheet view that drops down from the main window.
There should be no need to make this view modal, and it hinders the user. There are a few ways to improve this; one would be to embed the information in the bottom pane that shows the currently selected addon. You could use a tab control to make the relationship explicit.
And the results of these calls should be cached during a single session, or at least the last content can be shown while getting the latest content in an async manner.
