First, we need arrays (ordering!) of sets of possible actions for navbar,
so we will have list of all possible actions.

Besides, simple test

        [...]
        sub dispatch {
          dispatch_ifelse(@_);
          #dispatch_hash(@_);
          #dispatch_callname(@_);
          #dispatch_anonsub(@_);
        }
        
        sub test_dispatch_all {
          dispatch(undef);
        
          dispatch("summary");
          [...]
          dispatch("tag");
                
          dispatch("unknown");
          dispatch("tag();injected();");
        }
        
        test_dispatch_all() foreach (1..10000);

run with '$ time ./test.pl > /dev/null' has shown that (suprise, suprise!)
that hash is fastest, then if...elsif...else variant, then 
  my $sub = \&{"git_$action"}; eval { &$sub() };
and last, much much worse is eval "..." version.

Of course test leaves something to be desired...
