I doesn't belong in that list. I had to supersearch to find this thread to find the doc — it's not like it's hard to see, but it's very well camouflaged by being the odd one out in the middle of an otherwise uniform list of things of a completely different type.

It needs to be visually distinct.

Mockup of a proposed interface:

Viewing Nodes As of: <<<< <<< << < Now
Mode: [Root and Node|V] [Switch]   |   More settings   |   How do I use this??

Jump to Discussion | Questions | Meditations | Perl Announcements | Cool Uses For Perl | Categorized Questions | Snippets | Code Contributions

(The mode doodad is a dropdown+button here.)

That visually groups together the things that functionally belong together, and makes different things look different. The current look where a list of config options are all visible all the time and are simple links just like the long bunch of in-page anchors following them makes it hard to scan the area for units of functionality.

Makeshifts last the longest.
