If they're thinking that hard about layout, they aren't concentrating
hard enough on writing API documentation and the result isn't going to
be maintainable ('cos when I next fix a bug in their code, and update
the docs, I'm going to have zero patience with their fancy layout, so
I'm going to normalise it to something straightforward).

If we pander to the folk who care more about appearance than information
content, we're doomed.  Look what happened to poor old HTML ...
