I think the spacing controls are now so complex that
they really do need a 'learning' approach to help
users understand how to approach page layout.  Mark's
original patch was quite good for that, but belongs in
the LM.  Then the NR can contain purely reference material
for users who simply want to look up a detail.  I think
we are in danger of falling between the two by paring
this down.
