Note, my nodes currently all have a custom "up" direction:

@node NAME, , , CUSTOM

That, plus Perl. :)

The documentation is precise, which is fantastic, but it could use some
*inline* idiomatic examples, e.g. this is how you add a button to your
navigation bar.

P.S.

Another point of friction was MathJax, namely its *hard-coded*
configuration.  I ended up pointing `MATHJAX_SCRIPT' to a dummy file,
and then configuring and loading MathJax myself in `EXTRA_HEAD'.

Speaking of MathJax, Texinfo puts each `displaymath' inside a `div' and
`em', so with no-JavaScript browsers, and text readers, such fragments
become LaTeX code with *no line breaks*, which makes them hard to read.
Perhaps Texinfo could put displayed mathematics into some HTML element
that preserves line breaks?
