Could we /not/ use '=>' -- the markup extensions use => to indicate right
aligned text; =< means left aligned and both are omitted from printable
views, enabling one to write, for example
=>[[#top | Top]]
=<To create a printable view of the trail, press '@Publish@'
These appear on screen but not in print.
And on the features front, if I am editing such an indented block,
can I select the whole block, click an indent (or outdent) gui edit
button and move the entire block in or out?
