New submission from Mark Dickinson <dickinsm at gmail.com>:

The wording of the first section of the cmath module documentation is 
confusing:  the displayed blocks seem to suggest that there are real() and 
imag() functions.

This first section really needs a serious rewrite.  While we're at it, it 
might also be nice to separate out the cmath functions into categories, in 
the same way that the math module documentation is organized.

Also, 'complex plain' -> 'complex plane'.
