It's already in. You have to look at the pre-release docs. The release 
docs are built with an older dmd.

Example:

I'm going the conservative route for now, keeping the text justified. I 
don't think hyphenation/justification is worth the troubles, but Andrei 
is the one that would have to be convinced here.

I think that standard is pretty weak, more of a default really.

We want a red site, not a blue one. Links are the site's number one 
source of color. Blue links would make for a blue site with a red bar on 
top.

Re visited links: I removed the :visited styling without thinking too 
much about it, as I don't consider it very important. Am I wrong?
