Add Custom Menu/Banner to PI Vision layout

I would like to add a banner (or some kind of menu) that persists at the top of every PI Vision page. Is there a way to add something like that to the site's layout?

    The ability to open a "Page within a page" would cover this. The parent page would have custom banners as needed and then the page within a box would be the display page. Clicking links on the parent page would open the links in the display page. The banner could easily include a place to display text from a point in the PI server. If you need to transmit a text to all the displays, just enter the text in a field on the control system or on the PI server itself using system management tools and the Archive Editor. Text is instantly transmitted to all displays like an announcement.

    I like the idea of an improved, customizable home page/menu navigation/banner, but I specifically need an editable banner for maintenance/outage notifications. This would be nice to be able to configure from the /PIVision/Admin web interface such that when turned on, the banner becomes active and the user supplied text displays on all PI Vision displays on that PI Vision server

    Have the ability to enable a maintenance banner across all displays. This would allow admins to inform separate user groups that have business critical displays that remain always on to expect a necessary browser refresh to clear "Error: Internal Server Error" messages. In a high availability architecture, you can perform server patching with no downtime, but from the user experience they will see an error when the server their current display is pointing to, is rebooted. A simple refresh takes care of this, but some warning to the user can help ensure the users confidence in the system when known errors will be occurring
