Rick, Yeah, this doesn't create the breadcrumb, that's something better handled on the server. If we were to create the breadcrumb on the client side, it would loose all of it's SEO advantages.
It's typical to see breadcrumbs in unordered lists, so I created a plugin that manipulates those lists and manages them when they get too long. I guess you could create a plugin that writes breadcrumbs based of cookies set when navigating, but this would be just as bad for SEO, and be wrong if you came there from google. Many CMS have built in bread crumbs, so hopefully you can use one of these. The links are all dummy links, just to show how it works. Thanks!
