Yes, of course. I would not want to mess with the user-pointing 
documentation on Themes, just the developer-pointing documentation.

OK, will do. I still think that maintaining a TOC for developers in 
two spots is prone to problems.

Well, the articles that need to have major updates for 2.1, on 
functions and such for developers, are in pretty sad shape for the 
2.0.x version anyway. Also, for function references, keeping track in 
one article of functions from both versions is VERY confusing to the 
reader (in my opinion, as a developer). So I will try to just 
integrate as much as possible, but I think the function reference 
articles do need to be kept separate.
