That's a good point. Larger should be Larger, eh? I've also thought the
text at the top is quite light in color. (The gray overall could be a
little darker. There are quite a few shades of gray between the current
hue and black.)

It might not be a bad idea to have a couple more stylesheet options.
(I'm assuming the current smaller/larger text size is managed via a
stylesheet switcher.) Joshua Drake just posted an alternative style
sheet for the docs.
