Interesting. I just assumed you'd both prefer #1, because
IIUC most items don't have skylines for padding. For
example, do things like title/toplevel markups, lyrics, etc.
have skylines? If not, I think the wording of #1 is more
accurate.
Trevor: when I `git grep' for "skyline" in the Documentation
directory, I get nothing, so to answer your question: no,
skylines are not explained anywhere in the docs.
