I've been thinking about the Tutorial vs. the rest of the Learning 
Manual, and I think I finally have a good answer: the Tutorial should 
cover just enough material to allow people to write simple pieces using 
the Templates.  The current tutorial is already 22 pages in the PDF, so 
I don't think we should be trying to stuff much more material in there.

Modifying the templates is covered later on (in "Putting it all 
together"), or perhaps in Fundamental concepts.  The exact division of 
the rest of the LM is still a bit in flux.  Now that I finally have the 
Formatting and Rewriting jobs organized, I hope to spend more time 
thinking about the LM.  I should have a better answer for you in a few days.
