Your idea has already been realized to a degree in Opera.
Opera has a "navigation bar" that users can turn on or off. It sits across the top of a page, and is populated by LINK elements in the HEAD section of a document. The navigation is limited to predefined keywords, like Home, Index, Search, Glossary, Help, Previous ... You may also be interested in PPK's revamped site.
