There is some overlap for sure, but I don't think navigation
(especially for a Web site!) is "just another GUI object". The
concerns involved in navigation design (particularly with regard to
representing the structure of the information space) are so
specialized that the more general principles of interface design are
insufficient to address them.

P.S. For those who may have missed it, part 4 of ia/recon is up:
