Description

Currently, when a user clicks on a catalog entry in the "Browse Catalogs/Categories" tree. The appropriate edit catalog page is shown. The issue is that the url at the browser address bar remains unchanged after the interaction.

Doing some research, I found that when a user clicks on the tree entry, an ajax request for EditProdCatalogAjax was triggered.
At first I thought it was a simple matter to modify the EditProdCatalogAjax request-map with the following. But that did not work as it ended up showing the target page within the previous page (ie. the entire target page inside <div id="content-main-section" class="leftonly"> of the previous page).

<response name="success" type="request-redirect" value="EditProdCatalog">
<redirect-parameter name="prodCatalogId"/>
</response>

I think it would be better to modify the entries in the ajax category tree to contain a link <a> to the target category page.
