Peter 3Jun12: I *really* don't like the numbers. They add nothing for me, they don't refer or relate to a numbered reference section for Preferences. And as Bill pointed out in the email thread the current front page doesn't have numbering anywhere.
  • Gale 03Jun12: Thanks for the work Bill. The new front page has numbers for the other list it has (the major sections) and this is a list too. Numbers reinforce the importance of Prefs and show the order (which is ambiguous otherwise.

    If we have numbers I am +1 on across first, -1 on down first. I like bullets (when aligned properly) +0.75. I'm -0.75 on having neither bullets or numbers. I agree it is not really right in the context of the whole page. If most want neither bullets or numbers, then maybe a subtle border around the Prefs block?
