I answered my own question and now can't figure out how to delete this post......

@steinm is it possible to use the API in a single request from a browser? To claify, could I construct a URL that would "view online" a document using the API? I read doc/README.hooks but still don't know how to use them (or why there are no View hooks listed).

Fwiw, I really like the look of the ViewDocument page on the demo site with the document preview extension. It would be a great layout when I want to mostly see the document meta-data and also having the document preview is a nice addition. Also I had never thought to "pull" the Eye icon to a new browser tab, which is very convenient.

However, the preview is quite small (2/3? of the screen area is used for meta-data), and doesn't seem to be expandable to fill the window (but even it it was, that would still be another mouse click).

Fwiw, I like the look of the ViewDocument page on the demo site, with the document preview. It's a great layout when I need to see the document meta-data and having the document preview can be very convenient. However, it's still not a shortcut to seeing just the document as big as possible without 2/3 of the screen area being used to show meta-data - IMHO, and the current behavior is certainly not a show stopper.
