[3] Testnet light client debug/shortcut dropdown menu #1772

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. A clear and concise description of what the problem is. Ex. I'm always frustrated when [...]

When using the light client on a private testnet, the lack of URL navigation (which is present in the web ui) prevents working around application initialization errors & missing data pages (such as USD_BTS market default pair of which both won't exist in a testnet).

Describe the solution you'd like Either the ability to display and modify the URL bar within the light client, or a semi-hidden debug drop-down menu to navigate directly to specific pages within the client?

Describe alternatives you've considered

Compile web wallet for private testnet UI access, perhaps the UI is expecting a different testnet configuration? Perhaps a more dynamic testnet detection/switch over process?

Possible to navigate through the developer console?

Using a different client build, perhaps it won't have the testnet application initialization issues?

Additional context N/A

It may indeed pose a problem sometimes. The UI should handle the lack of the defined markets gracefully and navigate to another, valid, page.

Not sure how easy it would be to implement a "Navigate To" feature, but it's a good idea for quick navigating if you know where you want to go, like a app-map list.
