-	<p>This page is a feature overview. It should be split into sections, with one feature per section. Small illustrative figures should be used to display these features where appropriate. A better explanation for the path bar is required (shouldn't be talking about the "root" of anything, that's a technical term.) Explain how you can add things to the sidebar (link to a topic or explain it here).</p>
