Usability problem with the current sidebar nav behavior.

1. Go to edit.html -- you will be at the top level of your Orion workspace.
2. Locate a folder in the list that does not contain a README.md
3. "Pick" the folder by clicking on its name (the hyperlink).

Nothing happens in the navigator or the right-hand pane. This makes it seem like your action didn't work.

We must change this to expand the folder in place. 

We will, as we currently do, also show a README.md in the right hand pane if the folder contains one.

I preserved the hyperlinks on the folders. Just added some additional magic when you click a folder link, that expands the folder.

Let's see what kind of strange edge cases *this* causes.
