I'm a little concerned about adding more files to the rendered HTML
output.  So far, the release documentation files we put on the CDROMs or
other install media are almost entirely self-contained (with the
exception of the CSS stylesheet).  The way we stage the files doesn't
scale well to handling lots of images (it's not the usual FDP "make
install" because we need to munge the filenames as they get copied out
to the staging areas).  Yeah, I know it's only two PNG files, but, well,
slippery slopes, and all that.  Maybe we could use your stylesheet hack 
to switch to text callouts for the release documentation only.

If there is no easy way around this, I will drop my original objection
to the extra text within the <screen></screen> element.

Bruce.

PS.  Nice article on callouts BTW.  What about dropping this into the
tree?
