Some suggestions:

  - put space between the +/- button and the module name in the contents

  - increase the font size in the module contents (I like the floated
    contents BTW, I was going to suggest that)

  - maybe remove the external margins on the code blocks (so the grey
    background isn't indented a bit relative to the text)

  - the section headings don't stand out *quite* enough.  Maybe a bit
    more vertical space before a section heading, or a feint
    horizontal line, or darken the background on the heading?

  - (I suggested this on IRC) make it possible to click on "Instances"
    to show/hide the instances, so we don't have to aim at the samll
    button.

Should we think about accessibility issues?  Keyboard-only navigation?
