Repair Traces on Glass?

A chip of glass broke out of the corner of the
display on my Palm m505 PDA. It took with it
the trace that wraps all the way around to the
other side of the touchpanel.

If I short across the break with tweezers,
the touchpanel works. But I can't figger out how
to repair the break.


3M makes some conductive tapes:

I guess you could tape the two ends together and then bridge a short
length of copper track over the top.
