[Bf-docboard] Visual Improvements to the Manual

[gandalf3]

Okay, this is like a month or two late, but better late than never I 
guess :P

One thing that has bothered me is that I can no longer see the 
navigation after scrolling down on long pages.

I've fixed this for my self with a simple css hack:

.wy-nav-side {
     position:fixed;
     height:100%;
     overflow-y:scroll;
}

But if others are experiencing annoyance with the same problem, perhaps 
a (nicer) fix could be added to the official manual?


Another thing which annoys me is the way search result captions show 
extraneous markup, which usually makes them completely useless..
Most likely not solvable with css, but I thought I'd mention it.

If by "clear search highlight" you mean some way to get rid of the 
highlighted search terms without editing the url and reloading the page, 
then +11 to that ;)
