Easier GitHub Fork Switching

There are many issues I have with my favorite site to host git repositories, GitHub, but today I decided to solve one of them.

The Problem

When you are on a page in one of your project forks on GitHub for say some file in the repository, and you want to switch to see the same page for the project that you forked from, then you have a number of clicks and page loads ahead of you. My feeling is that there should be a single link that allows you to do this, and vice versa.

The Solution

Changing the 'fork of ...' link in the upper left of the repo header area to go to the same page on the parent project instead of going to the parent project's root page, and doing the same with the 'Your Fork' link. Then finally creating a 'your fork ...' link on the parent project of your forks where the 'fork of ...' link is found on your forks.
