Our documents generally need some overhaul and i hope that their visibility 
helps this point.  I think that by the time we can make the lhs-navigation
part into a tree-like (with open/close of subtrees) structure.  But
right now flat seems to be better than nested imho.

This is set from the CSS and i just modified it to your suggestion.

Yes, please.  They won't be shown automatically because they are probably not
text-files, though.  Maybe by time we should put the "most recently
modified" list on the lhs and make an annotated tree-like overview in the 
doc-main screen (including non-text files)? 

cheers,
