in reply to Table of Contents in Newest Nodes

Okay, while you're at it,

(1) Can you please stack the "New Users" area to multiple columns, if not on a completely different page? This is the biggest source of chaff in an otherwise informative page. Having a hundred bare names in a single column just pushes that "I've checked all these" button a few miles farther down. I don't mind "honoring" all the names, but the signup rate is too high to really have much value as presented.

(2) Alternatively or additionally, add a second "I've checked all these" button just below your new ToC list.

    As long as the New Users are contained in a list (with a proper class attached to it), you can rearrange the users into a multi-column list yourself by restyling that list:

    ul.newusers { width: 90%; position: relative; } ul.newusers li { width: 30%; display: inline; }

    Adjust the precentage to suit your desired number of columns :-)

      Yeah, but they're not in a UL at all, they're in a TABLE, at least as I browse it today. They surely are list items and not tabular cells, semantically, so that's a good revision to make here.
