I don't think this will help at all. My reviewer didn't even look on the
AG page, much less the main doc comment page with more lines that will
push the meaty links out of view. I notice that if people have to scroll
before they see any meat, they think it's not there. We are so impatient
now, we fly off to something else before looking (or reading) what's
right there. Doc people need to face that and stop putting so much
non-meat at the top of a page. We love words too much.
IMHO
