I think this is useful material.  I would put it in the CG: a new section in 
Programming work: Tutorial on grob alignment.  If you do this and are 
certain make doc runs without a problem, then pushing directly to staging 
would be OK as far as I'm concerned.  There are a few nitpicks with the 
English, but it would be just as easy for a native English speaker to fix 
those once it's in the CG as it would to go through review.
