Agreed. And the phobos pages have yet another navigation variant that 
looks similar but has different elements.

The accordion menus have been introduced somewhat recently (early 2015 
IIRC) to make the menu more structured, less crowded. Recently, a number 
of things have been suggested to be put at the top level. The problem 
is, if we put everything at the top level, we end up with an overcrowded 
menu again.

Not saying that the forum shouldn't be at the top. But if we move it up, 
we should probably move something else down.

Not sure what you're asking for here. The +/- signs are part of a button 
that expands/collapses the sub menus. What behavior would you expect/prefer?

Is implemented and merged. The site just hasn't been updated yet.

I agree, others don't. See discussion on 
<https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/dlang.org/pull/1139> where I 
originally proposed this download button:

Now, I don't want to complain about people not liking the design. And I 
pulled the design changes back rather quickly, because the functionality 
was supposed to be the subject of the PR. A big, flashy download button 
has not exactly been rejected.
