I like breadcrumbs, but here are two issues that often go unexamined:

Where does it start?

Relative to the homepage? User session start? A specific subsection? Search
page? Also, is it always displayed? etc. On sites with sizeable depth, this
could become problematic.

How do you label them?

Where do you get the labels for each crumb? If you're doing this
programmatically, parsing out the page title or the file name may not always
produce the most concise or meaningful label, within the context.

Best,
